Products
Freshpet's cat food and dog food products are marketed as fresh, requiring refrigeration[1] since the company's products have no preservatives.[10] Freshpet was the first to distribute pet food in the fresh and refrigerated category across North America. After a 2007 crisis of wet and dried dog food tainted by melamine, Freshpet's uncontaminated fresh food products experienced rapid growth in the number of stores carrying them.[11][12]
As of 2021, the company's pet-food brands include Freshpet, Dog Joy, DogNation, Spring & Sprout,[13] Vital, Homestyle Creations, and Nature's Fresh.[14]
