Personalised Pet Collars: Craft Business with Growing Demand
Pet owners struggle to find quality collars with custom names or designs โ make and sell them to order.
Making and selling personalised collars, leads and accessories for pets based on individual orders. The customer chooses material, colour, text or graphic design โ the maker produces the item using an embroidery machine or sublimation printer and ships directly. The business can be run from home with minimal equipment, with a gradually expanding range and a growing base of returning customers via an online shop or platforms such as Etsy and Not On The High Street.
Standard collars from pet shops are generic and easily mixed up. Dog and cat owners want a product that reflects their pet's personality โ but in most high street stores, that simply isn't an option.
๐The pet accessories market shows sustained growth
The global market for pet collars and accessories is worth hundreds of millions of pounds, and demand for personalised products is growing significantly faster than standard ranges, according to Future Market Insights and Fact.MR data from 2025. The UK pet industry is one of the largest in Europe.
