Pet food brands are responding to evolving pet owner priorities around health and sustainability. In the next two years, brands will leverage growing interest in supplements and functional ingredients to support pet health, with priorities like gut health and mental wellness mirroring human trends. Sustainability commitments will need to become more transparent, addressing packaging, sourcing and emerging areas like insect-based foods. As humanization continues, treating pets like family members will open opportunities to premiumize pet food with a focus on palatability and shared experiences between pets and their owners.
