Pet Care in Egypt

The number of pets continues to increase among expatriates

Expatriates in Egypt are bringing new habits to Egyptian society. The increasing number of those expatriates is having a strong impact on the pet population among middle- and high-income groups. Egyptians in these groups are more likely to adopt aspects of Western lifestyles, including keeping pets at home. The increasing number of compounds that either contain villas or apartments, and that have large green areas, is allowing a greater number of people to keep pets, both dogs and cats, at home.

Middle-income groups begin to consume pet care products

The middle-income segment of the population is becoming a new consumer base for pet care, including pet food and pet products. This segment of the population is much more price sensitive than the higher-income segment. Consumption within this group remains heavily biased towards non-prepared food, however, increasing numbers are realising the benefits that prepared food offers, including the fact that taking care of their pets with healthy food and using pet products can help avoid expensive trips to the vet.

The Egyptian revolution, which began in January 2011, had a dual effect on the pet care category in Egypt. The negative effect was a series of short-term delays for imported shipments of pet care products in different Egyptian ports, a situation expected to last until the political situation in Egypt stabilises. A more positive impact may emerge in the longer term as income levels in Egyptian society reflect a new emphasis on social justice alongside a reduction in the levels of corruption, as campaigned for by many political activists. This could have a positive effect on the level of foreign direct investment in the country.
