Measuring the Impact of COVID-19: Pet Care Market Faces a Slight Slowdown, Steady Sales of Pet Food Prevents a Sharp Revenue Decline – Future Market Insights

As COVID-19 has shown a variation in sales of pet care products and adoption of services, market players are turning to digital solutions to respond to changing needs.

DUBAI, UAE / ACCESSWIRE / June 23, 2020 / In recent times, the pet care market has been experiencing significant growth, as the new generation of consumers – millennial and Gen Z – has started to embrace the pet-loving and pet-owning lifestyles to a greater extent than their elders. A shift in preference for pet foods from their traditional options and the advent of online purchasing are contributing to rapid expansion of the pet care market.

While the coronavirus outbreak has taken a toll on the best-laid plans of businesses across a wide spectrum of industries, it has created both unprecedented challenges and opportunities for the pet care market players. Pre-COVID-19 forecast of the pet care market pegged at 5%-6% growth in 2020, which is estimated to suffer a drop of 2.5%-3%, according to a study by Future Market Insights.

"An opportunity emerged for pet care brands offering essential products through online channels, amid the stay-at-home orders and social distancing requirements triggered by the COVID-19. However, key companies active in the production of kennels, dog walkers, and groomers are facing significant challenges, due to the lack of ‘essential' status," says the FMI analyst.

Key Takeaways of Pet Care Market Study

The pet care market is expected to recover by the first quarter of 2021, owing to steady sales of pet foods.
Sales of pet foods, particularly dog food and cat food, will continue to account for a higher share of manufacturers' bottom lines as compared to other pet care products.
While pet shops and supermarkets remain key sales channels for the pet care market, key players are targeted towards capitalizing on online channels for a distinct competitive edge.
North America will continue to maintain its lead in the global market, as millennials across the region are increasingly blurring the line between human child and pets.

Pet Care Market – Key Growth Drivers

An increasing rate of pet adoption and big brands cashing in on humanization of pets remain key growth drivers.
Increasing demand for more gourmet options over traditional pet foods will drive the frequency of innovations in the marketplace.
Affluent millennial pet owners, willing to spend on organic pet foods and luxury pet hotel experience, will open up new avenues of market revenue growth.
Emergence of pets as an integral part of the family, especially in developing countries with high spending power of consumers is expected to play an instrumental role in the market growth.

Pet Care Market – Key Restraints

Despite millennial filling up the gap left by aging baby boomers, the pet ownership worldwide is still facing a slow growth rate which poses as a significant challenge for market players.
Mass market of pet care products through e-commerce, making most brands available at lower prices, has led to penetration of new players which represent a potential threat to incumbent companies.

Impact of COVID-19 on Pet Care Market

Panic buying and stockpiling practices during the initial phase of COVID-19 have rapidly emptied the shelves of pet care products, which prevented a sharp decline in the market revenue. However, a large number of pet care services that are not deemed ‘essential' came to standstill, due to the domino effect of nationwide lockdown. Additionally, supply shortages of premium products have prompted consumers to turn to cheaper brands, which is highly likely to affect the brand loyalty following the COVID-19 crisis.

Competition Analysis

Key players operating in the pet care market include Nestle Purina, Mars Inc., Merck & Co., Zoetis, Ancol Pet Products, PetSmart, Inc., Blue Buffalo Pet Products, Petmate Holdings Co., Champion Pet Foods, Petco Animal Supplies, Inc., and Heristo AG.

As the COVID-19 takes a bite out of the pet care market, service providers are struggling with low demand and turning to digital solutions to maintain their business continuity. This factor played an important role in Mars Petcare's decision to launch ‘Pet Health Pal', a free digital education tool powered by WhatsApp and Facebook Messenger chat bot functionality, in partnership with Waltham Petcare Science Institute.

Join Pam Christian In Navigating The New Normal

NEW YORK, NY / ACCESSWIRE / June 23, 2020 / To say we were blindsided by the events of March 2020 and the months that followed would be an understatement. Yet, despite the confusion, economic hardship, and fear, mindset coach and motivational speaker Pam Christian says that society is on track to prevail. How, you ask? We will prevail, Pam says, "because an unrelenting pursuit of survival is inherently human; the pandemic will force us to adapt – as humans have done since the dawn of time – and better ourselves in ways that no one would even fathom".

For some, the pandemic ushered a welcome break from the grind, quality time with family and the ability to work from home. For others, the ensuing spike in unemployment and catastrophic economic fallout stoked an unwelcome, deep sense of fear and uncertainty. Many Americans wondered how they would pay their bills or feed their children. But no matter how the pandemic effected you, Pam says, the "world of tomorrow will pose new and unknown challenges, making adaptation a requisite skill for survival. Many facets of our lives will not be the same for the foreseeable future, including gatherings, graduations, public parks and hiking trails, beaches, museums, restaurants, stores and so much more".

But Pam points out that each of us has the power to determine how the "reopening of the world" goes – and it is up to us as a society to ensure that it goes as well as possible. Just as we have relied on our collective resiliency, adaptability, support, commitment, compassion, inclusivity, power, sense of connection, humility, love, tenacity and courage to get through the pandemic, we have to draw on these qualities to redefine our future. This isn't to say that the pandemic revealed our best selves. We certainly saw the downside of humanity as well – with fear, anger, negativity, skepticism, and sadness popping up. But today, Pam says, "we must choose to focus on the good – and the possibilities that such good can engender"

"Keeping an open mind and leaning in is the way to optimize your post-quarantine life", Pam says, and successfully doing that starts with the following tips and tools.

1. Mindset is everything: Are your thoughts building you up or breaking you down? Pay attention to your inner dialogue, notice when your inner saboteur appears and let that go so the leader within can appear. Affirmations are a great way to encourage this shift.

2. Where attention goes, energy flows: What are you focused on? More to the point, what are you attracting? If you like what is appearing in your life, keep going. If not, take a step back and reassess. For example, if you focus on what you don't have – the relationship you so badly want, the job you can't seem to get, etc. – you will get more of that. If you focus on all the good (no matter how big or small) in your life, you will get more of that!

3. Health matters: How we feel is critical to our overall well-being. Take care of your physical health but also be sure to nourish your mind and spirit. Each of these three components brings equal weight to bear on your wellness and success.

4. Move: Energy is everything, and movement is one way to get it out of stagnation and into a flow state! When you lead a sedentary life, you are not giving your body the chance to cultivate the energetic flow that will create a higher vibration. It doesn't take much – a walk, light stretching, beginner's yoga, weight lifting – just get started!

5. Go inward: Get to know yourself – what you like, what you don't like, what you want to release, what you want to add and so on. This allows you to clear the energy and really focus on what works for you (and what doesn't), which allows you to become more centered and grounded in who you truly are and what you truly want from life! If you spend all of your time partying, shopping, watching Netflix and overeating, you are just distracting yourself, and it will definitely come back to bite you at some point. So do the introspective work now, and start living your most authentic life.

6. Believe the universe is conspiring in your favor: If you question everything that happens in your life (whether it is good or bad), you are questioning your journey. When you trust that there is something bigger out there guiding you, you can confidently walk your path with the knowledge that the universe is looking out for you. Have faith!

7. Practice self-care and self-love: It begins and ends with taking care of yourself and loving yourself. Without that, nothing else matters. We have been taught it's better to focus on what's wrong with ourselves rather than what's right. But when we do that, we can't love ourselves. Change that pattern by mindfully doing things you enjoy. When you do, you will experience an altered state – a happier state. That happier state allows you to start loving yourself, it helps you to focus on what's right and it encourages you to embrace your authentic self.

8. Pace yourself: The journey is yours, so stay on your path and keep your own pace. Don't worry about where anyone else is on his path. Did your best friend get ahead of the curve and buy when the stock market was down only to triple his investment? Did that guy from your fraternity launch a successful YouTube channel advocating for social justice? Good for them! None of that means you aren't doing exactly what you are meant to do. Don't succumb to societal pressures that suggest you are "less than" when you don't follow them. You are right where you need to be.

Regardless of where you are in the reintegration process or in life in general, these tips, Pam says, exemplify the same adjust-and-pivot mentality that allows people to succeed in challenging situations. Each one invites you to reevaluate what you may have taken for granted and emerge from the process a stronger, more authentic person. Take them all on as a challenge, or break them down into bite-size pieces and tackle two or three at a time. Even just one step, Pam says, can be the beginning of something bigger. So take a leap of faith, be consistent, have patience, and watch as something even better unfolds in front of your eyes!

Cheaper Car Insurance For Senior Drivers – Top Tips

LOS ANGELES, CA / ACCESSWIRE / June 23, 2020 / Compare-autoinsurance.org (https://compare-autoinsurance.org/) announces a new blog post, "How Senior Drivers Can Protect Their Car Insurance Rates from Rising?", that presents several important tips that will senior drivers keep car insurance costs under control.

For more info and free car insurance quotes, visit https://compare-autoinsurance.org/how-senior-drivers-can-protect-their-car-insurance-rates-from-rising

Sooner or later, senior drivers will have to deal with a major increase in their car insurance costs. Even if they have perfect driving records with zero accidents and traffic tickets, their insurance rates will still increase. Some might feel that their insurers are discriminating because of their age, but insurance companies are legally allowed to charge any premium they want based on the driving record and age.

Senior drivers can save money on insurance if they follow the next methods:

Change the driving status. Retired senior drivers are recommended to change their driving status to pleasure or leisure. The new status will cover the senior driver's daily routines that are not work-related. By doing so, the insurers will see the senior drivers as lower-risk and will charge less on their premiums
Graduate a defensive driving course. Many states mandate that senior drivers be given discounts for taking approved driving courses. These courses take only a few hours and can be taken in an afternoon or a weekend. These courses will help drivers refresh their driving skills and knowledge.
Join a UBI program. Senior drivers can save as much as 40% by joining a usage-based insurance program. A device will be installed in their vehicles in order to record the mileage and various driving habits like speed, braking tendencies, and acceleration.
Drop a driver from the policy. In states that don't require all licensed drivers in a household to have car insurance, senior drivers can exclude anyone who no longer drives from their policies in order to save money on car insurance. Usually, excluded persons are older spouses or parents.
Make the car safer. Another great method for saving money on insurance is to install approved safety devices. Seniors can pay less on insurance if they install devices like rearview cameras, collision warning systems, and parking assist.
Compare quotes. Seniors should shop around and compare different car insurance quotes. Insurance companies have different premiums for different groups of people. Using a brokerage website to compare multiple insurance quotes is the ideal method that will help seniors find better insurance deals.

Compare-autoinsurance.org is an online provider of life, home, health, and auto insurance quotes. This website is unique because it does not simply stick to one kind of insurance provider, but brings the clients the best deals from many different online insurance carriers. In this way, clients have access to offers from multiple carriers all in one place: this website. On this site, customers have access to quotes for insurance plans from various agencies, such as local or nationwide agencies, brand names insurance companies, etc.

Measuring the Impact of COVID-19: Pet Care Market Faces a Slight Slowdown, Steady Sales of Pet Food Prevents a Sharp Revenue Decline – Future Market Insights

As COVID-19 has shown a variation in sales of pet care products and adoption of services, market players are turning to digital solutions to respond to changing needs.

DUBAI, UAE / ACCESSWIRE / June 23, 2020 / In recent times, the pet care market has been experiencing significant growth, as the new generation of consumers – millennial and Gen Z – has started to embrace the pet-loving and pet-owning lifestyles to a greater extent than their elders. A shift in preference for pet foods from their traditional options and the advent of online purchasing are contributing to rapid expansion of the pet care market.

While the coronavirus outbreak has taken a toll on the best-laid plans of businesses across a wide spectrum of industries, it has created both unprecedented challenges and opportunities for the pet care market players. Pre-COVID-19 forecast of the pet care market pegged at 5%-6% growth in 2020, which is estimated to suffer a drop of 2.5%-3%, according to a study by Future Market Insights.

"An opportunity emerged for pet care brands offering essential products through online channels, amid the stay-at-home orders and social distancing requirements triggered by the COVID-19. However, key companies active in the production of kennels, dog walkers, and groomers are facing significant challenges, due to the lack of ‘essential' status," says the FMI analyst.

Key Takeaways of Pet Care Market Study

The pet care market is expected to recover by the first quarter of 2021, owing to steady sales of pet foods.
Sales of pet foods, particularly dog food and cat food, will continue to account for a higher share of manufacturers' bottom lines as compared to other pet care products.
While pet shops and supermarkets remain key sales channels for the pet care market, key players are targeted towards capitalizing on online channels for a distinct competitive edge.
North America will continue to maintain its lead in the global market, as millennials across the region are increasingly blurring the line between human child and pets.

Pet Care Market – Key Growth Drivers

An increasing rate of pet adoption and big brands cashing in on humanization of pets remain key growth drivers.
Increasing demand for more gourmet options over traditional pet foods will drive the frequency of innovations in the marketplace.
Affluent millennial pet owners, willing to spend on organic pet foods and luxury pet hotel experience, will open up new avenues of market revenue growth.
Emergence of pets as an integral part of the family, especially in developing countries with high spending power of consumers is expected to play an instrumental role in the market growth.

Pet Care Market – Key Restraints

Despite millennial filling up the gap left by aging baby boomers, the pet ownership worldwide is still facing a slow growth rate which poses as a significant challenge for market players.
Mass market of pet care products through e-commerce, making most brands available at lower prices, has led to penetration of new players which represent a potential threat to incumbent companies.

Impact of COVID-19 on Pet Care Market

Panic buying and stockpiling practices during the initial phase of COVID-19 have rapidly emptied the shelves of pet care products, which prevented a sharp decline in the market revenue. However, a large number of pet care services that are not deemed ‘essential' came to standstill, due to the domino effect of nationwide lockdown. Additionally, supply shortages of premium products have prompted consumers to turn to cheaper brands, which is highly likely to affect the brand loyalty following the COVID-19 crisis.

Competition Analysis

Key players operating in the pet care market include Nestle Purina, Mars Inc., Merck & Co., Zoetis, Ancol Pet Products, PetSmart, Inc., Blue Buffalo Pet Products, Petmate Holdings Co., Champion Pet Foods, Petco Animal Supplies, Inc., and Heristo AG.

As the COVID-19 takes a bite out of the pet care market, service providers are struggling with low demand and turning to digital solutions to maintain their business continuity. This factor played an important role in Mars Petcare's decision to launch ‘Pet Health Pal', a free digital education tool powered by WhatsApp and Facebook Messenger chat bot functionality, in partnership with Waltham Petcare Science Institute.
