Davidson Branding creates the new packaging.

More than a year in the making, Kindfull is the retailer’s new cat and dog food private brand.
 

The pet approved insect-based pet food for cats and dogs will launch initially as a DTC brand.

Mondi's white paper, “Premium Pet Food Purchaser Survey Results: Trends, Behaviors and Insights Pet Food Manufacturers Can Leverage to Convert Consumers,” is based on research conducted by Mondi in partnership with Dow Chemical in first quarter 2019.

LendEDU surveyed 1,000 American pet owners to ask them about their spending for their pets and how it affects their personal finances. On average, pet owners spend $139.73 per month on their pet(s).

I  have dogs — three to be exact. And not much is more important to me than my dogs’ health. Yet here we are with another — major — potential pet food recall. Sixteen brands are under the FDA’s watchful eye; most are grain-free versions but the players are some of the higher-end (and more expensive) brands.

It is a new year — with a new Congress, and many new state legislatures — but the same trade wars and scrutiny over packaging and plastics exists; so, what is the outlook for flexible packing in the U.S.? Still strong and growing.

Stand-up pouches(SUPs) is now one of the fastest growing flexible packaging formats with global demand expected to pass 90 billion units in 2017, according to a report from AMI. The favorable development of the total supply chain cost of stand-up pouches and their stronger proposition to promote sustainability compared with rigid packaging alternatives will continue to be the key drivers of demand.
