PROSPECTS AND OPPORTUNITIES
Popularity of exotic pets set to grow slowly over the forecast period
Other pet food in South Africa is expected to continue growing over the forecast period, although it will remain a niche category overall due to the specific and often complex needs of these pets. This growth is anticipated to be driven by increasing interest in alternative pets to cats and dogs, such as birds, fish, and reptiles, along with small mammals.
