Hong Kong’s pet supplies market is expanding quickly as consumers spend more on premium food, apparel, accessories, toys, and wellness products. According to US International Trade Administration, in 2022 pet food sales reached USD 723.6 million, and local pet owners’ per‑capita spend hovered around USD 140 – evidence of Hong Kong’s ultra‑premium positioning in Asia.
At the same time, overall pet care expenditure rose to HKD 4.5 billion in 2023, with online pet product sales up 25% year‑on‑year – signaling a decisive shift toward eCommerce and omnichannel retail.
Globally, from Mordor Intelligence pet supplies market report, the pet supplies market was valued at USD 248.71 billion in 2025 and is projected to grow at 8.26% CAGR (2025 – 2033), driven by premiumization, wellness, and direct‑to‑consumer models – tailwinds that benefit Hong Kong brands planning regional expansion.
Crown Logistics provides the end‑to‑end 3PL backbone to help pet brands scale in this environment – combining temperature‑stable warehousing, tech‑enabled inventory control, eCommerce fulfillment, and B2B distribution tailored to Hong Kong’s premium standards.
The Hong Kong Market: Premium, Omnichannel, and Expanding
Hong Kong pet owners prioritize quality and functionality, with premium dog and cat food representing roughly 75% of category value, well above many regional peers.
Beyond food, the city’s non‑food pet products – apparel, grooming tools, accessories, toys – grew 11% year‑on‑year to HKD 1.1 billion in 2022, while retail store sales reached HKD 2.0 billion in 2023 (about half of total spend).
Market trackers also report continued pet care growth into 2025, with a rising cat population as a notable demand driver, useful for brands diversifying into cat‑centric SKUs. At the global level, Asia Pacific remains a fast‑growing region within pet care, reinforcing cross‑border opportunities for Hong Kong brands.
What Makes Pet Supply Logistics Different, and How Crown Logistics Solves It
Multi‑SKU complexity
Pet snacks, freeze‑dried toppers, size‑run apparel, grooming tools, and toys all need different storage and pick methods. Crown Logistics sets category‑specific SOPs (slotting, pick paths, packaging) to lift accuracy and cost efficiency.
Expiry and traceability
Consumables and supplements require lot/expiry control. We enforce FEFO, monitor aging stock, and provide at‑risk alerts – critical in Hong Kong’s premium market where freshness and labeling drive purchase.
Seasonal and promotional spikes
Festivals, launches, and live‑sale events can surge volumes. Our wave‑picking, surge staffing, and pre‑kitting stabilize SLAs – vital as online pet sales scale with a growth of 25% year‑on‑year.
Omnichannel expectations
Hong Kong shoppers expect fast delivery, precise orders, and live tracking. We orchestrate orders across marketplaces, your online store, and B2B replenishment from a unified inventory pool.
Retail compliance
We meet routing guides, ASN/label standards, delivery windows, and packaging requirements – reducing chargebacks and protecting shelf space.
