We care
To give something back...
We started as a small Czech family business. Bowl after bowl we have become the European leader in the pet food industry. But big success comes with even bigger responsibility, and that’s why we’re doing our best to give something back and help others in need, using our influence and voice to raise important topics and make a difference. For pets, for humans, and for the environment.
We care about the environment
Committing to sustainability
If you want to change the world, you need to start with yourself. That’s why we’ve committed to leave the smallest possible pawprint on our planet. Not with empty words but with a clear action plan and deadline.
