Who We Are

At Freshpet, our goal is to change the way people nourish their pets forever. We strive to strengthen the bond between people and our pets so that we both live longer, healthier, and happier lives while being kind to the planet. We believe that if we can create fresh, real foods that pets love and help them live healthier lives, their pet parents will also enjoy the many benefits of a rich life shared with a pet.

We started with a mission to change how pet parents feed dogs and cats, but we also wanted to be a company with a thoughtful approach to how we operate. We wanted to do things differently: make great products while being gentle to the planet, good to the people who touch our business, and leave a positive impact with everything we do. We work hard every day to uphold the original vision, starting with making the highest-quality foods in our kitchens and running our business with integrity, transparency, and social and environmental responsibility.
