Our take

Many industries were hit hard over the COVID-19 pandemic, but it is perhaps unsurprising that growing pet ownership over the period has kept pet food sales strong. Particularly standing to benefit are companies riding the general uptick of home-delivery services by switching to a subscription model.

More than ever, US pet owners are prioritising high-quality, nutritious food options. Smalls, previously known as Cedric Eats, specializes in supplying human-grade cat food to the growing number of pet-owning Americans.

Freshpet, Nom Nom, and Catperson are just a few of the many businesses giving Smalls a run for their money. At roughly $3 per day, Smalls are not the cheapest on the market. However, with a strong brand identity and fashionably premium products, they stand a good chance at making headway amongst a growing pet lover market.
