The Dry Food Sector is Growing in Turkey

Benefits of Dry Food for Pets

Cat and dog food, bird feed, and other pet foods were imported from abroad before 2005. However, since 2005, the market's dependence on foreign sources has decreased due to the increase in domestic production facilities in Turkey. Especially in the dog and cat food sector, Turkey has started to attract attention both within the country and abroad, thanks to the rapid fulfillment of demand and the continuity in food production.

Global Importance of Dog and Cat Food

In a sector with a global market share of 69 billion dollars, Turkey is currently around 275 million TL and is estimated to reach around 350 million TL by 2015. Tropikal Pet leads among domestic producers, achieving an average annual growth of 10% within the country. Dog and cat food are the most consumed products in the market, followed by bird feed as the third most consumed item.
