TRENDS
As humanisation increases with growing consumer awareness of the types of pet dietary
supplements and pet healthcare available, pet products will enjoy vibrant value growth of 8%
in 2011. Real GDP in Taiwan is bouncing back from the economic slowdown, reaching 9%
growth in 2010 and is expected to stand at a positive 4% in 2011. This bright outlook brings
about positive consumer sentiments, increasing the willingness to spend more on other pet
products from pet healthcare and pet dietary supplements to other non-essential pet products
such as toys for dogs and cats.
Pet dietary supplements is expected to register the most rapid current value growth of 10% in
2011. Due to humanisation, a growing number of pet owners have come to perceive and
believe that their pets’ overall state of health can be improved by taking dietary supplements.
The willingness to try these products also comes from the improved economic outlook which
expanded many consumers’ disposable income and willingness to spend. Distribution is also
more common now, expanding beyond veterinary clinics to most pet shops and pet
superstores stocking more variety. Riding on a similar trend, pet healthcare will also grow by a
healthy 5% in current value terms in 2011.
Cat litter is mostly used for cats and small mammals such as rabbits. Strong population
growth will take place for both cats and small mammals in 2011, with cats growing from
287,000 in 2010 to 292,000 in 2011 and small mammals increasing from 275,000 in 2010 to
286,000 in 2011. With this, cat litter will enjoy strong current value growth of 6% in 2011, two
percentage points faster than its growth in 2010.
As consumers are more educated about the possible transmission of ticks and fleas, more
consumers purchase flea/tick treatments for their pets. These products are usually purchased
at specialist pet stores such as pet shops, pet superstores and veterinary clinics and are
applied at home without veterinary consult or supervision. Flea/tick treatments account for a
34% share of pet healthcare value sales. Worming treatments represent an 11% share of
value sales, while the remainder is accounted for by other products.
Increasingly, at pet specialist stores such as pet shops, pet superstores and veterinary clinics,
consumers are provided with brief consultations on the recommended feeds for their pets. As
a result, consumer awareness on pet healthcare and pet dietary supplements is on the rise as
consumers recognise its ability to ensure the health and wellness of their beloved pets.

Market Size Booms Due To Higher Volume Growth and Increasing Unit
Prices
Taiwan’s pet care market recorded healthy growth in 2011, thanks to a stable economic
outlook and increasing average spend per pet. Although the total pet population continues to
decline, the on-going premiumisation and humanisation trends help to drive up total volume
sales. More consumers choose to purchase prepared pet food due to better knowledge of pet
care. Total market sales are further boosted as unit price is still trending upwards, albeit at a
slower pace compared to previous years.
