Asia Pacific Pet Therapeutic Diet Market Opportunity, Growth Drivers, Industry Trend Analysis, and Forecast 2025 - 2034
Market Report I 2025-08-28 I 118 Pages I Global Market Insights
The Asia Pacific Pet Therapeutic Diet Market was valued at USD 798.4 million in 2024 and is estimated to grow at a CAGR of 8.2% to reach USD 1.7 billion by 2034.
Urbanization in countries like China, India, and Southeast Asian nations is leading to a rise in pet ownership. As more people adopt pets in cities, there's a growing demand for specialized diets to manage lifestyle-related health conditions in pets.
Rising Adoption of Dry Food
The dry food segment held a notable share in 2024, driven by its convenience, longer shelf life, and cost-effectiveness. Consumers find dry therapeutic food easier to store and measure, making it a preferred choice for daily feeding routines. Veterinary-recommended formulations for conditions like renal support, gastrointestinal health, and weight management are widely available in dry formats, allowing brands to reach a broader customer base. As urban pet ownership rises, demand for easily accessible, health-specific dry pet food products is expected to contribute significantly.
Rising Prevalence of Dogs
The dogs segment in the Asia Pacific pet therapeutic diet market generated a significant share in 2024, driven by their increasing popularity as companion animals across both urban and semi-urban regions. Dog owners are more likely to seek specialized nutrition plans for their pets, particularly chronic issues such as joint disorders, obesity, and skin allergies. With the growing influence of veterinary professionals and pet wellness trends, more dog owners are turning to prescription-based diets for preventive care.
Weight Management to Gain Traction
The weight management segment held sizeable growth in 2024 as obesity among pets becomes a widespread concern across the Asia Pacific region. Rising calorie intake and reduced physical activity, especially among indoor pets, have triggered health risks that necessitate dietary intervention. Therapeutic diets focused on weight control offer low-fat, high-fiber formulations to support metabolic health without compromising on taste or nutrition. Brands are capitalizing on this by introducing vet-formulated options specifically designed to reduce weight-related complications.
