Increasing expenditure on high-quality food for animals by consumers has been main driver for antioxidants market in Europe. Owners have shifted towards nutritious intake to maintain the health and immunity of their animals. According to the European Pet Food Industry Federation (FEDIAF), Europe is a crucial major market with 340 million domesticated animals around the region. The purchase by European residents accounted for 10.5 million tons of food items, with approximately 46% of the households in the region containing a domesticated animal.

Major companies working in the region, such as Alltech, DSM, and Nutreco, have been focusing on introducing natural products to gain leverage from this new trend in the market.
