Turkey's pet food market is expected to grow at an impressive pace during the forecast period. Pet food is defined as food that has been specially prepared and is meant to be consumed by animals.

Consumers are now able to spot various allergies and intolerances in their pets.

According to data gathered by regional news agency Anadolu Agency, the nation's cat and dog food exports reached a total of US$176.2 million last year, an increase of 11.8% over 2019.

High Value-added Taxes Restrict the Market Growth

In December 2021, animal lovers were forced to request Turkish authorities for discounts on essential goods due to increased animal food prices and the high value-added tax. Animal lovers have been forced to take action due to rising pet food costs brought on by currency fluctuations that caused the lira to drop sharply and the imposition of an 18% value-added tax because it was regarded as a luxury good. In Turkish culture, caring for needy animals is ingrained, and many people help care for stray dogs and cats in their neighborhoods by purchasing pet food from pet stores or receiving it from their local government.
