Pet owners are increasingly concerned about pet health and providing pets with nutritious food, which directly benefits the global pet food market. The purchasing decisions they make are based on factors such as high nutrition content and other factors that benefit the health of the pets. This is expected to drive the global pet food market.
Factors such as the rising number of cases of allergies among humans due to pets may hamper the market. Growing obesity problems among pets due to the utilization of high-fat pet food can also act as a restraint for the global pet food market.
