I. Core Trends of the Pet Economy in 2025: Consumption Upgrading Drives the Emergence of Bestsellers

  • The GMV year-on-year growth rate of pet food reaches up to 53.06% (cat main food track)
  • The average transaction price (ATP) of smart products exceeds 1,000 US dollars, with sales increasing by 230% annually
  • Functional products (healthcare, temperature control) have become the fastest-growing segment
  • Cross-border e-commerce channels account for 47% of the market, and small-packaged, cost-effective products are more popular in emerging markets
