North America Pet Food Nutraceuticals Market is projected to grow at a CAGR of 4.86% during the forecast period (2020-2025). The North American market is the first respondent to any major global trend or consumer pattern; the high level of market penetration and corresponding infrastructure are cited as reasons for pioneering attitude. The concept of pet ‘humanization’ is the major trend that is consolidating both the pet care and pet food markets into a sense of overall pet well-being.

This focus is well visible in the marketing and new product launches of the major firms.
Key Market Trends
Rising Trend of Pet Humanization
The shift in pet ‘ownership’ to ‘parenting’ has been a very crucial and defining trend in the pet food nutraceuticals market. Majority of the households in North America own a pet. Traditionally, pet owners fed their pet the leftovers and scraps from family meals. However, consumers are now becoming aware about that pet food and home-made food consist of separate nutritional elements, and that pets need to be fed a diverse range of food, as part of an adequate diet. An important part of pet humanization is the safety and nutritional needs of pets, which is also a result of consumers being educated about labeling and the ingredients used in products. Although these extra considerations come at a higher cost, the higher disposable income, is contributing to the sales of commercial pet foods in the region.
United States Dominates the Market
The United States is the most important and pioneering market in North America. Geriatric dogs and cats are a major pet demographic in the United States, with a one third of cats and dogs being seven years or older.
