Pet ownership in South Africa is on the rise and so is spending on pet care. After the COVID-19 lockdown in March and April 2020, there was a significant increase in the adoption of dogs, cats, birds, and fish as pets.
According to a study published by the Wisconsin Economic Development Corporation (WEDC), with the COVID-19 pandemic lockdown, many people in South Africa found new companionship by welcoming pets into their families.
This rise in pet ownership has fueled the demand for various pet care products, including snacks & treats. According to the WEDC study, South Africa boasts a pet dog population of 9.1 million, surpassing Australia's count by more than twice, along with approximately 2.4 million cats.
