Pet Health Insurance Provider
Arriving to market with a far-reaching vision is Direct Pet Health Holdings, Inc. ("DPHG") of Dallas, TX, a dynamic new provider of pet health insurance and related products and services.
Aggressively positioned to capture a large segment of the accelerated-growth pet health insurance industry, Direct Pet Health offers consumers and businesses pet health care policies, and innovative products and services through a low overhead marketing strategy that targets an aggressive-growth market driven by increasing demand for pet health insurance. The company also provides private label pet insurance to strategic partners in complementary segments of the industry with a goal toward consolidating distribution channels.
The market dynamics are incredible. With 68 million owned dogs, 73 million owned cats, 5 million owned horses, this is approximately 62% of all U.S. households. Market trends currently values the market at $100 million with a growth of approximately 45% annually. Yet the AAPMA: Dept. of Labor and Statistics reports only 1% of U.S. pets are insured. This is an untapped industry of 42 billion dollars/year.
