Our take
Many dog food options fall short when it comes to providing complete nutrition, but Spot & Tango is changing that. Offering a range of fresh, nutritious meals, the company is raising the bar for pet owners who want the best for their dogs.
Founded by an experienced consultant and investment banking expert, Spot & Tango has a distinct business edge over many of its competitors. And the demand for its innovative approach to dog nutrition is undeniable, as seen in the company's impressive funding success, raising $51.8M in 2022 alone.
While the company faces the challenge of competing with long-established, larger pet food brands, it's not backing down. With significant investments in production and plans to open its own manufacturing plant, Spot & Tango is positioning itself to compete - and thrive - in the years to come.
