The Covid-19 pandemic had a notable impact on the industry. Companies had to adapt to the challenging circumstances while facing operational and logistics hurdles. However, many market players leveraged the opportunity to increase profits and market share. For example, Vetoquinol S.A.reported an overall increase in 2020 sales compared to the previous year. This growth was driven by its essentials comprising veterinary drugs and non-medical products.

Driven by the increasing humanization of pets, the expenditure on pet health and wellness is also on the rise. In 2019, in Australia, more than USD 2.6 billion was spent on animal health services as per Animal Medicines Australia. This trend was estimated to continue in the near future. The top reasons cited for veterinary visits were general health checkups, pathology & lab tests, vaccinations, illness or injury, X-ray & imaging, hospitalization, and others.

Increasing availability and adoption of pet health insurance is another factor propelling the market growth. The company estimated that only 3% of the pet dogs and cats population in Hong Kong was insured, even though veterinary care costs were high in the country. The company projected more and more pet owners would opt for pet health insurance in the coming years.
