    Quick Summary

    The insect-based pet food market is set to reach $7.09Bn in 2021, driven by demand for sustainable options. Key growth areas include organic products and online retail channels.

    Insect-Based Pet Food Market to Reach $7.09Bn by 2021

     

     

    Global sales of insect-based pet food are projected to total US$ 7.09 Bn in 2021, predicts Future Market Insights (FMI). Growing demand for organic and sustainable pet food is expected to propel sales of insect-based pet food at a 9.3% CAGR, pushing the market size to US$ 17.29 Bn by 2031 

     

    Rising pet adoption across the globe is spurring demand for insect-based pet food. This has also resulted in the popularity of the ‘pet humanization’ trend in which individuals are giving equal importance to their pet’s health and well-being by giving them specialized diets.

    As a result, insect-based pet food is becoming increasingly popular among pet owners. Shifting consumer preference towards sustainable pet food, along with the rising incidence of illnesses in pets from livestock-based animal food will continue driving sales of insect-based pet food in the forthcoming years. 

     

    Such developments are anticipated to bode well for the insect-based pet food market. Sales of insect-based pet food in the U.S., the U.K., China, and India are anticipated to gain traction at a remarkable pace over the assessment period, owing to rising awareness regarding grain-free pet food.

     

    “Ongoing research and development to incorporate other protein-rich ingredients in insect-based pet food will augment the growth of the market in the forthcoming years. Besides this, surging adoption of innovative dietary patterns for pets such as gluten-free diet will continue pushing sales of insect-based pet food over the forecast period,” says an FMI analyst. 

     

    Key Takeaways: 

     

    • Based on nature, demand for organic insect-based pet food is expected to rise at 10.4% CAGR over the assessment period. 
    • In terms of source, the black soldier flies (BSF) segment is projected to account for 35% of the total market share in 2021. 
    • Consumption of insect-based pet food in the dogs segment is anticipated to increase at 8.4% CAGR through 2031.
    • Online retailing will remain the dominant distribution channel for insect-based pet food over the forecast period. 
    • Demand for insect-based pet food is expected to grow at a 7.1% CAGR in the U.S. 
    • China insect-based pet food market is projected to expand at 12.5% CAGR through 2031. 
    • Sales of insect-based pet food in the U.K. are anticipated to accelerate at a 5.9% CAGR over the forecast period. 

     

    Prominent Drivers: 

     

    • Fast-tracked product approvals regarding new ingredients used in insect-based pet food will augment growth of the market. 
    • Easy availability of insect-based treats, toppings, and jerky via online retail channels is expected to fuel sales of insect-based pet food through 2031.
