The rate of growth in retail constant value sales of dog food will slow slightly in 2026 but be somewhat higher in the forecast period than in the review period. The canine population will rebound throughout the forecast period, but it will still be lower in 2030 than it was in 2024.
E-commerce will continue to grow in importance as a distribution channel for dog food. Convenience will remain the main driver of this, in addition to the wide product offer and the ease of price comparison.
Dog owners are increasingly aligning their pets' diets with their own values; fostering a demand for more diverse and sustainable options. Sustainability is set to continue to move towards centre stage, with insect-based protein gaining traction in dog food.
