Growth of Veterinary Hospital Market in UAE

The veterinary hospital market in the UAE is expected to reach a projected revenue of US$ 303.7 million by 2030. This growth also aligns with broader trends in the global pet care industry, which is estimated to reach USD 340.71 billion by 2029. As a result, the need for professional, accessible, and high-quality veterinary care has never been greater. 

The demand is driven by many factors, such as increasing pet ownership, rising disposable incomes, growing awareness of pet health and wellness, advancements in veterinary medicine, premiumization of pet products and services, urbanization, changing attitudes toward pets, pet insurance, e-commerce and online pet care services, and an aging pet population.

ARENA Veterinary Holding has made this crucial decision to expand its network at a time when the country's veterinary care industry is experiencing rapid growth. The acquisition of Star Veterinary Clinics is a perfect response to these evolving market conditions.

“By combining Star Veterinary Clinics’ expertise with our resources, we aim to enhance our service approach and set new standards in the pet care industry. This acquisition reinforces our commitment to providing premium, accessible, and compassionate veterinary care for pets and their families.” Ali Soudi shares while reflecting on what this acquisition means to their vision.
