In 2025, Hong Kong’s global imports of pet food declined by 6.5 percent year-on-year to $142 million. The United States remained the top supplier, recording 2.8 percent growth compared to 2024. However, U.S. market share has declined compared to earlier years due to intensified competition from regional suppliers that often compete on price and proximity, while U.S. exporters tend to compete in higher-value segments emphasizing premium ingredients, nutritional science, and product safety. Thailand has emerged as a particularly strong competitor, with imports reaching $26 million in 2025 and showing steady growth over the past five years. Imports from several smaller supplying countries have also increased, further reducing U.S. market share. Hong Kong: Table 2 – Pet Food Imports Total Imports (Million USD)
