A new line of boutique wet dog food is expanding petfood production for Lotus Natural Pet Foods, in Torrance, California, USA, according to a Packaging Digest article.

The company began with a line of dry petfoods that are baked, not extruded, and made from all-natural ingredients. In winter 2010, the company built a new petfood plant and production line to make its expanded product line of boutique wet dog food.

"The line is running very well," said Steve Day, Sterling Consulting Inc. president, the systems integrator for Lotus' new production line. "All-in-all, this has been a very successful project."
