MERA – The Petfood Family
We are passionate about the well-being of cats and dogs. That’s why, as a family-owned company in its third generation, we put our heart and soul into creating high-quality nutritional concepts that are completely tailored to your pet’s needs. The variety of valuable ingredients, the highest quality controls as well as the careful production of our products in Germany are deeply rooted in our culture.
