Written by The Charm Team | Apr 28, 2023 5:57:38 PM

 

One in five households adopted a pet during the pandemic, and at the same time, consumers were turning to ecommerce for their pet food needs. These factors sparked growth in DTC pet food subscription services. Here’s what you need to know:

  • 27% of pet food sales took place online in 2020; the number is expected to rise to 35% by 2024.
  • The DTC landscape allows for a level of personalization that brick-and-mortar stores cannot provide. Pet food companies such as Tails.com allow consumers to personalize their dog food which is something that cannot be done in brick-and-mortar stores.
  • To manage all DTC customer data, Ollie has invested in several platforms and staff across multiple mediums from email to SMS and voice.
  • Ollie launched an app that allows customers to manage their subscriptions by updating delivery and frequency dates and making changes to their meal plans.
