April 5th (Friday) Current status and outlook of the pet market Pet food and product distribution occupy an important area as the number of pet animals continues to decline. From the perspective of an industry leader, we will tell you about past changes and future market trends that cannot be seen from numbers alone. Over the past few decades, food has changed from “guard dog food” to “family meal.” It is said that the number of dogs kept will decrease to 3 million in the next 15 years, so what will happen to the pet market? We are introducing content that can be used to grasp trends that are hard to see within the industry and help enter new businesses.
