Nestlé Purina PetCare Company | Next Challenge: How can regenerative hygiene make our products more sustainable? |
*This challenge is intended for those who have a pet dog or cat! We also encourage participation from EUROPEAN SOLVERS for this challenge.
Millennials sit at the forefront of contemporary pet culture. Compared to other groups, they get their first pet at a younger age, spend more money on their pets' comfort needs, and place greater importance on the nutritional value of pet food. Although millennials can remember how their dogs and cats were fed as kids, that doesn't necessarily mean it will look the same in 10 years. The continuing advancements in technology, ingredients, and other areas could have a big impact on how millennial pet owners feed their pets in years to come.
Considerations: This challenge is intended for the following:
- -Dog or cat owners only!
- -European solvers
- *Video submissions are preferred! This will impact prizes.

- What trends might impact the pet food industry?
- Envision it is 10 years from now. Describe how people will feed their dogs or cats.
