Annamaet Petfoods has formed a partnership with Pet Solutions Group (PSG) to expand distribution across North America's independent pet retail channel. The Hatfield, Pennsylvania, U.S.-based manufacturer will leverage PSG's sales team and distributor relationships to increase market reach.
Pet Solutions Group operates a sales organization with managers across the U.S. and Canada, focusing on the independent pet retail sector. The company provides sales support, retail expertise and data analysis services to pet food brands.
"Annamaet is an outstanding example of what happens when passion and science come together to create products that stand the test of time," says Kirk Young, CEO of Pet Solutions Group. "At PSG, we are proud to partner with a brand that is not only committed to pet health but also to sustainability and nutrition. We look forward to amplifying their message and expanding their reach with our deep industry knowledge and proven strategies for independent retail success."
Annamaet Petfoods has operated as a family-owned company for nearly 40 years, manufacturing dog and cat nutrition products. The company currently distributes throughout the U.S. and exports to 15 countries. Founder and CEO Robert Downey has published research in veterinary and nutrition journals and released a memoir titled "Until the Last Dog" in 2024.
The manufacturer's current product portfolio includes 17 dog food formulas, four cat food options, treats and five supplements. Annamaet develops products in collaboration with board-certified veterinary nutritionists.
"Our mission at Annamaet is to maximize the health and well-being of our beloved pets while preserving our environment and natural resources for future generations," said Downey. "With our science and nutrition background, our team is continually exploring ways to bring the best products to the pet food market, and we're thrilled to have a partner in PSG to help us reach even more pets and their families."
