Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/6277e5/china_sourcing_rep)
has announced the addition of the "China
Sourcing Report: Pet Supplies" report to their offering.
China's pet products industry has remained fairly stable despite the
adverse market conditions that crippled many export and manufacturing
industries in the country.
Apart from a steady supplier base, most companies were able to keep
their prices fixed in the past months, an indication of good business.
Some are even planning to raise their capital expenditure by as much as
50 percent in 2010.
But since the line is very broad, it is difficult to determine the exact
value and volume of the country's overseas shipments. In fact, China
customs does not track pet supplies shipments independently.
Nevertheless, most makers agree that overseas sales are on the rise. In
the survey conducted for this report, more than 60 percent of
respondents anticipate that export revenue will increase 10 to 20
percent in the next 12 months.
To boost demand, while boosting competitiveness, makers are developing
more designs with novelty and innovative features. Pet apparel
companies, for example, are releasing novelty, human-style designs, such
as sanitary pants, swimsuits, gowns, tuxedos, stockings and gloves. Some
dog collars and leashes are also embellished with accents used typically
in high fashion.
This report focuses on the main pet supplies exported from China --
chews, toys, collars, leashes, beds, mats, clothing, kennels and
carriers.

Industry statistics & charts
The following are some of the key trends we see in China's pet products
industry:
Companies from related sectors such as children's garments and leather
goods will continue to join the line. Such suppliers are venturing
into pet apparel, and collars and leashes, respectively.
Prices at most enterprises remained the same in the past quarter,
thanks to the more stable material costs. When the industry was
analyzed in July 2008, the majority of respondents planned to raise
quotes, many of which did so by up to 10 percent.
Compliance with international quality standards has improved industry
wide, as export markets become keener on promoting pet safety,
nutrition and hygiene. A growing number of chew makers, for instance,
are obtaining certification from HACCP, BRC and US FDA.
More suppliers of pet apparel are releasing novelty, human-style
designs, such as sanitary pants, swimsuits, gowns, tuxedos, stockings
and gloves. Some dog collars and leashes are also embellished with
synthetic jewels, rhinestones, crystals and other accents used
typically in high fashion.
To address the "green" market, some pet toy makers have developed
designs made of loofah sponge and other natural and biodegradable
materials.
Chews, toys, collars, leashes, beds, mats, clothing, kennels and
carriers dominate China's pet supplies exports. These are also the
scope of this report, which was first published in January 2007 and
updated in July 2008.
The latest design and material trends, and the factors influencing
quality and price are highlighted in each product category covered in
this report. The industry composition and manufacturing hubs of each
line are discussed as well.
Projections for the next six to 12 months for overseas sales, capacity
expansion plans and R&D initiatives are detailed in the Supplier Survey.
The Industry Overview discusses the latest developments, underscoring
important market conditions and issues. The strengths of major export
hubs, mainly Zhejiang, Guangdong and Jiangsu provinces, are likewise
described. Reflecting the nature and composition of the industry, nearly
80 percent of the interviewed suppliers are based in the three provinces
mentioned. A number of makers are also located in Fujian province and
Shanghai. Further, most companies are manufacturers with direct export
rights. Almost 70 percent of the enterprises in this report directly
ship their output overseas. Ninety-four percent of the featured
suppliers are mainland China-owned. Others are Hong Kong-invested.
