If there’s one thing people splurge on, it’s their pet. The pet industry profited significantly during the pandemic, according to the American Pet Products Association, in 2020, the pet industry totaled $103.6 billion in sales, a historic high.
We live in a world where there is now such a thing as a “pet influencer” on social media. People are OBSESSED with their pets, making the pet industry busier than ever. Pet owners are keeping the pet industry booming and super profitable – from grooming appointments to buying toys and treats, pet groomerie and boutique franchises are constantly busy.
The Top 3 Reasons the Pet Industry is Recession Proof
In 2021, over 12,000 retail store fronts closed from the COVID-19 pandemic. Roughly 9 million people lost their jobs due to the pandemic. It’s safe to say the pandemic was tough on many industries, except for one, the pet industry. The pet industry was thriving during a global pandemic, making it recession proof, and here’s why:
1. People will always spend money on their pets
You’d think during a global pandemic that people would stop spending money or try to save money, but that certainly wasn’t the case with the pet industry. The simple fact is, people will always spend money on their pets. Pet sales didn’t just grow during the pandemic, they hit a historic high. The pet industry profited significantly in 2020, with total sales of $103.6 billion, a historic high, according to the American Pet Products Association.The pet industry is forecasted to reach $281 billion by 2023, according to market research firm Edge by Ascential.
2. Pets are a luxury to own
With adoption shelters empty, people are purchasing pets from big name pet stores and private breeders. So, not only is purchasing a pet expensive, but owning a pet is also expensive. Like humans, pets require food, water, medicine and grooming. You can also assume that people are going to of course spoil their pets with treats, toys, daycare and pet accessories. With all that being said, pets are clearly a luxury that people don’t mind spending money on.
3. They’re trending
Pets have always been a hot commodity, people love animals! It seems millennials in particular are purchasing pets in replacement of having kids. In a recent survey conducted by YPulse, they found out that 76% of Millenials prefer to have pets over children. Most pet owners consider their pets family members, as they should! We live in a world where a pet “influencer” is now a thing. It’s trendy and popular for pet owners to wear apparel that say “dog mom” or “cat lady”, hang pictures and paintings of their pets in their home and to post their pets on social media.
