Vegan Cat Food in the Middle East: A Quiet Market Finding Its Place

Across the Middle East, vegan cat food remains a small but emerging niche. The market is concentrated in the United Arab Emirates, which accounts for nearly half of regional sales, while Saudi Arabia is showing the fastest growth. Qatar also records high per‑capita demand. Although vegan cat food represents less than one percent of total pet food sales, annual growth rates of fifteen to twenty percent highlight its steady expansion.
