Growth Potential of Indian Pet Care Industry

The pet care economy in India is on the brink of unprecedented growth, with projections indicating that the market will surpass $3 billion in the coming year, boasting a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 20 per cent. This explosive growth is attributed to changing consumer preferences, the lavish spending habits of high-net-worth individual (HNI) households on pet care, and investments in the sector. Companies such as Drools have already achieved a valuation of $600 million, hinting that India's first unicorn in the pet care sector may be on the horizon.

BW Businessworld's special issue features in-depth interviews with founders and CEOs from market leaders like Drools Pet Food, Heads Up For Tails, Super Tails, Zigly and international market leaders such as Mars Pet Care and Royal Canin, shedding light on the dynamics propelling this industry forward. From premium pet products to innovative pet insurance solutions, the sector is rapidly adapting to meet the evolving needs of pet parents. Technological advancements and shifting consumer habits are also identified as key drivers of innovation and growth within this vibrant industry.
