Own-Brand Pet Food Expansions

The Abound Pet Food Range is Being Expanded by Kroger

— May 29, 2024 — Lifestyle
The Abound pet food range is being expanded by Kroger to help give the private label pet product brand more appealing benefits for today's shopper.

The product range now includes five new products that are formulated with quality ingredients to help with specific concerns, while also not having any unwanted fillers. The products are reported to strike a balance between being high-quality yet affordable, which has become top-of-mind for many consumers. The various new products are formulated with dogs and cats in mind, depending on the variety, and are making their way to the retailer's locations now in the US.

Vice President, Our Brands Juan De Paoli spoke on the updates to the Abound pet food range saying, "Pets are cherished members of our families, offering unconditional love and companionship every day. Kroger is excited to introduce new Abound products with even more nutrient-dense ingredients, specialty formulations, and training treats. Pets enrich our lives, and a healthy diet with Abound is a simple way to show love to our four-legged friends."

2. Ingredient Transparency - Consumers are gravitating towards pet foods that prominently feature clear ingredient lists and avoid fillers.

Industry Implications

2. Retail Grocery - Grocery retailers are enhancing their private-label offerings to attract price-sensitive consumers looking for high-quality pet food.
3. Animal Health and Wellness - The rise in nutrient-dense, health-focused pet food options is aligning with broader trends in animal health and wellness products.
