Leading pet stores in the U.S.

PetSmart Inc., the American retail chain, held a 25 percent share of the U.S. pet store market based on revenue in 2021. The U.S. pet store market is dominated by two major players, namely PetSmart and PETCO Animal Supplies.

Where do consumers buy pet supplies?

When asked where they most recently purchased food for their pet(s), the most common answers given by consumers in the United States were discount stores, mass merchandisers, and pet super stores. These were also some of the more typical stores for shoppers to visit when buying pet toys. Vets and off-price stores, on the other hand, were less popular alternatives.
