Grocery retailers underperform and lose out to pet shops and e-commerce, due to limited stock of other pet food
Versele-Laga maintains its overall lead, due to lower levels of activity in other pet food than seen in cats and dogs
RECOVERY AND OPPORTUNITIES

Channel migration to e-commerce and specialist pet stores set to continue, whilst other pets remain somewhat neglected through mainstream channels
Other pets miss out on “Instagrammable” trend due to lower levels of humanisation
