Organic Pet Food - Worldwide

Organic Pet Food Market Definition

Organic pet food is a product that follows both animal feed regulations enforced by states and the FDA, along with the process control requirements of the National Organic Program (NOP). Organic pet food is considered healthy for animals as it does not contain any pesticides and antibiotics which impact the animal’s immune system and overall health, as these chemicals have a high chance of blocking the animal's ability to release toxins. Incorporation of organic food in the pet animal's meal prevents it from feeling lethargic and does not cause health-related issues. The increasing pet population and rising number of pet owners who are concerned about their pet’s health are adopting healthy and organic food choices, contributing to the growth of the organic pet food market.

The introduction of new products is an opportunity for the market. The growing consumer awareness of implementing dog weight maintenance and improvement is gaining attention from the manufacturers which leads to an increase in the production of advanced, nutritious and luxury food products. The dominance of the organic pet food market is extensively observed in North America due to rising millennial pet ownership and in Europe due to a rising preference for organic food.
