The Gross Value Added (GVA) per employee in the prepared pet food industry in Germany was forecasted to slightly decline from 2024 onwards. Starting at 106.5 thousand Euros in 2024, it gradually decreases by 0.1 thousand Euros each year, reaching 106.2 thousand Euros in 2028. This trend represents a subtle but consistent contraction in productivity per employee FTE over the forecasted period.

Future trends to watch for:

Impact of automation and technological advancements on productivity.
Changing consumer preferences towards premium and health-focused pet foods affecting value addition.
Potential for increased competition and market saturation, influencing GVA trends.
