Our take
The number of subscription model services has risen substantially over nearly a decade, and the hassle-free, customizable model makes it a smart fit for pet services. BARK, previously BarkBox, is a subscription company working with retail giants like Amazon, Target, and PetSmart to leverage this trend, delivering monthly boxes of dog products to pet owners.
The recession-resistant nature of the pet sector has made BARK an attractive investment prospect. However, numerous like-for-like US competitors have enjoyed the same market benefits, and whilst BARK's big-name retail partnerships are likely to keep it ahead, at some point it may need to consider more decisive ways of distinguishing itself from competitors.
However, the company has leveraged these advantages into material gains. Further, after a minor rebrand and the launch of BARK food, its own dog food brand, it seems well-placed to continue ahead of the pack. The company also recently partnered with Crocs to release dog Crocs, it's a very fun and exciting new branch for the company that will surely appeal to many fur baby owners.
