To make pet food that is good for pets, and does some good for farm animals and the environment, all at the same time.
Much like humans, eating a balanced and nutritious diet is important to ensure a pet is happy and healthy. On top of this, owners are usually keen to purchase products that meet the same ethical and sustainability standards of goods they would buy for themselves - but big pet food brands often do not cater for any of these requirements.
Open Farm sells nutrition-focused pet food for dogs and cats at online and retail stores, with ingredients obtained from sources with excellent animal welfare standards and low carbon footprints. From its recipes to its packaging, the company displays a strong focus on ethics and environmental responsibility, and stands out for its transparency.
As consumer sentiment trends towards more conscious purchasing, there is a widening market for products such as Open Farm's. The company has been steadily growing its presence in the expanding pet food sector, and recently introduced an online carbon footprint tool that allows consumers to see the carbon footprint of all its products.
