The Pet Food Digital Summit 2024 explores various facets of the pet food industry, placing particular emphasis on the microbiome, sustainable sourcing practices, premium product categories, and potential safety risks.

Antioxidants and ingredients supporting digestion and immunity in pets drive 60% of market demand. Recognising this, ingredient suppliers actively research companion animal gut health, aiming to fill gaps in microbiota science.

The upcoming FeedNavigator Pet Food Digital Summit will highlight these crucial topics, exploring the role of the microbiome in advancing personalised pet nutrition and health.

Visit the official event website and register today to gain insights into the latest developments and trends shaping the future of pet nutrition and well-being.

Mintel expert and Director of Food and Drink, Kate Vliestra, will actively engage in the panel discussion focusing on ‘Premium categories: assessing the sustainability of the humanization trend’. In this session, she will share the most recent insights on the key trends shaping the industry, in 2024 and beyond.

Premium categories: Does the humanization trend still have legs? | Wednesday 6 March 2024 | 10 am GMT
