Pet manufacturers have been racking up the sales from their pet foods over the past few years. They have been doing so well that they are now growing faster than packaged human food sales. The video above digs into a little more detail on just how quickly pet food sales are growing.

So Why so Much Capital Investment in Pet Food?
