Cat litter sounds like an inconspicuous commodity, but it is one of the categories with the most stable sales and the highest repurchase rate in the US pet market. With the increasing number of pet-raising families, the demand for "high-frequency consumables with rigid needs" such as cat litter has also risen. For Chinese cross-border sellers, how to efficiently deliver products to American consumers, saving money and trouble, has become the key to success. So, is there an US overseas warehouse that can support cat litter dropshipping? The answer is yes - U-Speed US overseas warehouse is the ideal choice for cross-border fulfillment of this type of goods.
The US cat litter market continues to grow, and cross-border opportunities are great
According to PackagedFacts, the US cat pet supplies market - the "cat market" - will be about $43 billion in 2023, accounting for 30% of the total revenue of the US pet industry (about $145 billion) during the same period. As one of the most commonly purchased consumables by cat owners, the market space for cat litter is particularly considerable.
In addition, according to a report by Grand View Research, the US cat litter market reached approximately US$4.21 billion in 2022 and is expected to expand to US$5.74 billion by 2030, with an average annual compound growth rate of approximately 4%. The main reasons include:
Increase in the number of single-cat households: The proportion of American households with cats continues to increase.
High repurchase frequency: A cat consumes about 3.5-5 kg of cat litter per month, and user stickiness is strong.
Surge in category segmentation: From clumping type, bentonite, to tofu litter, crystal litter, consumers' requirements for product performance continue to increase.
Mature e-commerce channels: Amazon, Chewy, Walmart and other platforms have become the mainstream sales channels for cat litter, and the participation of cross-border sellers continues to deepen.
But at the same time, cat litter products also have certain cross-border delivery difficulties - large size, high weight, limited profit margins, and high self-delivery costs. At this time, whether there is a reliable overseas warehouse support for one-stop delivery has become an important guarantee for stable operation.
Where is the difficulty in cross-border delivery of cat litter?
For many sellers, although cat litter has stable shipments, it is not easy to do well. The main difficulties include:
High logistics costs: cat litter is large in size and heavy in weight. If it is delivered by traditional international parcels or express delivery, the freight will almost "eat up the profit";
Slow delivery time affects the experience: cat litter is a daily consumable, consumers expect fast delivery, and domestic delivery is difficult to meet;
Return and exchange are difficult to handle: in case of damage, sand leakage, or packaging collapse, the return cost is high and the process is complicated;
High platform fulfillment pressure: TEMU, TikTok, SHEIN and other platforms emphasize fulfillment time and return services, and it is difficult to meet the standards for self-delivery.
Therefore, what sellers need is not only a "warehouse", but a one-stop logistics partner that can cover warehousing, sorting, delivery, return, and after-sales management. U-Speed US overseas warehouse is exactly this "right person".
