FAS Colombia is writing a series of reports on the benefits and challenges of the U.S.-Colombia Trade Promotion Agreement (CTPA) between the United States and Colombia. This report analyzes the demand for pet food for dogs and cats in Colombia and the county’s use of the pet food tariff rate quota (TRQ), which will increase by four percent per year and be phased-out by 2019. A promotional campaign by the U.S. pet food industry could increase sales in Colombia for U.S. pet food.
