According to a new report from Intel Market Research, the global Pet Product Contract Manufacturing market was valued at USD 12,440 million in 2024 and is projected to reach USD 19,530 million by 2032, growing at a steady CAGR of 6.7% during the forecast period (2024–2032). This growth is driven by increasing pet ownership rates worldwide, premiumization of pet products, and the outsourcing trend among pet care brands focusing on R&D and marketing.

What is Pet Product Contract Manufacturing?

Pet product contract manufacturing is a collaborative business model where brand owners (clients) partner with specialized manufacturers to produce pet food, supplements, toys, and care products. The client provides product specifications, formulations, and branding, while the contract manufacturer handles production, quality control, and logistics using their facilities and expertise. This allows pet brands to scale efficiently without heavy capital investments in manufacturing infrastructure.

The market has evolved beyond simple OEM production to include value-added services like:

• Custom formulation development
• Regulatory compliance support
• Private label manufacturing
• Packaging innovation
