“Pet products are among the fastest-growing online retail categories and Amazon is leading the way,” said David Sprinkle, research director for Packaged Facts. Amazon is at the head of the pack of websites for pet product purchases earning 55 percent of those who purchased pet products online. Chewy, PetSmart, Petco, Walmart and Sam’s Club are following suit.

Sales of pet products through Amazon are expected to continue to grow with the launch of their private-label “Wag” brand of dry dog food. Amazon’s sales of pet products reached $2 billion, a 40 percent increase from 2016. Wag joins the Amazon’s list of private-label brands in more than 70 markets available for purchase only by Amazon Prime members.

Nestlé's 2027 food forecast is about upgrading the foods people already buy

Nestlé's 2027 food forecast is about upgrading the foods people already buy

Nestlé USA's 2027 Food and Beverage Trend Forecast names five shifts: zest, protein with a second benefit, fruit-forward coffee, regional global food and sensory extras. Each upgrades a familiar food. A 309% rise in sour category sales since 2022 could carry more weight than search data in a 2027 line review.

  • 01Each of Nestlé's five 2027 trends adds one element to a food people already buy, which makes the forecast read as a brief for line extensions and menu refreshes.
  • 02Sour category sales up 309% since 2022 and a 30% satisfaction edge for regional Mexican dishes could carry more weight than search and social growth rates, which may signal interest rather than purchases.

Food manufacturers are upgrading existing plants instead of building new ones

Food manufacturers are upgrading existing plants instead of building new ones

Food manufacturers are spending 2026 capital on upgrades inside existing plants, with equipment orders outpacing new construction. PMMI puts US food machinery at $5.1 billion for 2025, rising to $7.1 billion by 2031. If the gap holds, investment may stay in existing plants as manufacturers prepare for FSMA 204 in 2028.

  • 01If the equipment-construction gap holds, investment may stay in existing plants as manufacturers prepare for FSMA 204 in 2028.
  • 02New lines can win approval before new plants because ROI is easier to show, and automation and hygienic design can cut COGS and sanitation time.
  • 03Food and beverage manufacturing is projected to add jobs through 2034, suggesting automation helps get more output from a workforce that is still growing and hard to staff.
