Vital Essentials® | United States
Vital Essentials® is revolutionising the pet food industry globally.
Carnivores
Dogs and cats are natural carnivores, the essential nutrients they thrive on come from other animals. They are not designed to handle carbohydrates like corn, rice, and potatoes. A raw meat diet is exactly what nature designed dogs and cats thrive on. Vital Essentials is a leader in the raw pet food industry. The family-owned company produces high quality raw frozen and freeze-dried pet food, snacks, and treats. Its food, treats, and snacks promote vitality and support the overall health and wellness of all dogs and cats. Frozen and freeze-dried treats and entrees follow nature’s example with no added fruits or vegetables: just meat, vital organs and bones, the most nutritious and delicious elements for a carnivore.
Growth through innovation
The company has found success in its approach to sourcing exotic or never-used-before raw materials for frozen and freeze-dried raw treats and entrees. Innovations include the award-winning VE Raw Bar™, freeze-dried minnows for cats and dogs, freeze-dried rabbit ear treats for dogs, and the most comprehensive line of freeze-dried food for cats. International sales have grown exponentially in the past year and the company is actively seeking new distribution partners around the world.
Premium, limited ingredients products
Unlike others in the pet food space, Vital Essentials products are made from single-sourced, whole animal proteins procured from US Department of Agriculture certified suppliers. Products are sourced, made and packaged in the US with no added hormones, antibiotics, fillers, flavourings, artificial preservatives, colours, synthetic vitamins, minerals, or rendered by-products. What’s more, all products are Gluten Free, Grain Free, and Guilt Free®.
The company is the only pet food manufacturer in the world that has earned the following three certifications: EU certified, USDA certified and inspected and GFSI-FSSC 22000 (ISO) certified.
