The Pet Industry Is Big Business

The Pet Industry is big business and the numbers are gaining attention from many sectors. Pet Ownership is booming- and the United States pet-loving households are showing no sign of slowing down. For anyone already working in the pet industry- the growth has been explosive and is showing no signs of slowing.

According to the data and statistics announced at the 2021 State of the Industry presentation for APPA (American Pet Products Association), it was estimated that nearly $110 billion would be spent on pets in the US alone in 2021. And of that staggering number, nearly $10 million would be spent on pet services. 

What does that mean to the "pet"trepeneur (pet entrepeneur)? All of those pets will be lining up for services which their owners may not be capable of performing at home. The pet grooming industry is a perfect example of an industry that will be answering the call for services for those pets.  Pet business franchise concepts such as See Spot Grooming (www.seespotgrow.com) which offer an established business model complete with training, support, and proven processes are a key factor in accommodating this growing demand. 

Grooming services are crucial services for many pet owners to maintain a comfortable lifestyle for their pet. Grooming may be essential for a pet’s health and well-being, and many households are willing to purchase this service for their pets.  An industry statistic watchdog- Spots.com- reports the following statistics: 

• 8% of the pet industry is made up of grooming and boarding services alone.
• The industry has grown more than 60% since 2007.
• 42% of the pet care service industry is composed of grooming services.

The pet industry trends and statistics available from recognized sources such as Spots.com and American Pet Products Association offer valuable insight into the future of pet franchise business opportunities. The growing demand for pets and pet ownership requires a strong workforce development strategy- which lends itself well to the pet franchise business arena. See Spot Grooming (www.seespotgrow.com)  stands beside a field of competitors such as Aussie Mobile, Splash and Dash, and Wag N' Wash in offering pet grooming business franchise solutions to qualified candidates.
