UAE Dog Food Market Report by Product Type (Dry Food, Wet and Canned Food, Snacks and Treats), Ingredient (Animal Derivatives, Plant Derivatives, Cereals Derivatives, and Others), Distribution Channel (Convenience Stores, Supermarkets and Hypermarkets, Online Stores, and Others) 2024-2032
The UAE dog food market size reached US$ 18.1 Million in 2023. Looking forward, IMARC Group expects the market to reach US$ 29.4 Million by 2032, exhibiting a growth rate (CAGR) of 5.4% during 2024-2032.
Although cats are preferred as pets in the UAE, dog ownership rate has also witnessed a significant rise over the past few years. Growing number of expatriates and increasing prosperity have encouraged the trend of dog ownership in the country. Moreover, owing to pet humanization, a large section of the population is now treating their dogs as a part of their family, and is willing to expend more money on dog food products for maintaining healthy weight and providing them with an overall balanced diet. Apart from this, premium dog food products are also gaining traction in the country as they are made of better-quality ingredients which provide the right balance of nutrients.
UAE Dog Food Industry Drivers:
Dog owners now prefer to buy organic dog food products as they are devoid of pesticides, genetically modified organisms (GMOs), and artificial flavorings and preservatives. Additionally, these products include natural prebiotics which assist in digestion and avert skin diseases and allergic reactions in dogs. Further, several residential buildings and public spaces in the UAE are now allowing the entry of pets with their owners. For instance, Dubai Birds and Pet Market has included a dog-walking area in its plans. Similarly, hotels in Dubai and Abu Dhabi are offering assorted treats, and special customized menu and services for dogs. Other factors such as the increasing number of nuclear families and escalating demand for service dogs for the geriatric population are augmenting the sales of dog food in the country.
