Royal Canin Strengthens Singapore Presence to Advance Pet Health

SINGAPORE, Sept. 2, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Royal Canin, a global leader in pet health nutrition, has established its owned presence in Singapore. This strategic expansion marks a significant milestone in Royal Canin's mission to improve the lives of cats and dogs through precise, science-based nutrition. By deepening its presence in Southeast Asia, Royal Canin aims to better serve the region's growing pet community and reinforce its commitment to the Asia Pacific region.

Since the pandemic, pet ownership in Asia-Pacific, which includes Singapore, has experienced a significant increase, as more turn to animal companionship for emotional support, stress relief, and a stronger sense of connection while spending extended periods at home. This growing bond between people and pets has continued, reshaping lifestyles and reinforcing the role of pets as integral members of the household.

Rising Pet Ownership & Community in Singapore

In response, the country is steadily transforming into a pet-friendly hub, evident in the growing number of dog-friendly cafés, boutique pet spas, and dedicated community parks. This shift has contributed to the continued growth of the pet care sector, driven by an ageing pet population, advances in veterinary care, and increasing demand for health-oriented products. The market is expected to expand by 5% to 6% in 2025, reaching an estimated SGD 350 - 400 million, according to Pet Fair Southeast Asia.

Royal Canin's growing presence in Singapore enhances its ability to collaborate closely with veterinarians, breeders, pet professionals, and pet owners within the country and across the region. With more than 50 years of scientific expertise, the company has developed over 400 specialised nutritional products, delivering tangible health benefits tailored to the unique needs of cats and dogs. By working closely with other experts in the field, Royal Canin continually refines its nutritional solutions based on the latest research and insights. This unwavering commitment to scientific innovation ensures that every product delivers real, measurable health benefits for pets.

Empowering Pet Professionals and Owners Through Knowledge

"At Royal Canin, we firmly believe that pets are not just companions, they are part of our family. Our mission is to strive for A Better World for Pets by nurturing their health and happiness," said David Cai, Regional President Asia-Pacific at Royal Canin. "Establishing our owned presence in Singapore allows us to be closer to our partners and the pet community, enabling us to share knowledge, co-create solutions, and support the unique needs of cats and dogs."

Grounded in education, science and collaboration, Royal Canin empowers pet owners and pet professionals to make informed decisions that lead to healthier, happier pets. Beyond producing specialised diets, the company is committed to developing innovative tools, services, and educational resources for pet owners and pet professionals. These efforts are aimed at deepening the understanding of pets' evolving unique needs and offer practical support for providing the best possible care and nutrition.
