The increasing prevalence of chronic diseases, stronger digital health penetration accelerated by the pandemic and early behavioral changes observed amongst the Indian consumer piqued our interest into the space. It goes without saying that we deeply care about spaces where large problems need to be addressed and strongly appreciate companies solving for these numerous problems.
The global pet market for 2021 stands at $154BN and is growing at 7-8% YoY. Of the $154BN global pet market, India contributes a mere $494MM but has the fastest growth rate of 30% YoY. While India is still at its nascent stages in terms of market size, the number of pet parents and their spend on pet tech products and services which was growing gradually is now growing suddenly.
