The New Zealand Natural Pet Food Co. produces freeze-dried and air-dried recipes for dogs and cats using free-range and grass-fed meats, wild proteins including venison and brushtail, and ingredients such as green-lipped mussels and manuka honey sourced from New Zealand. The company's recipes are made in small batches without fillers.
"We are excited to partner with Van Den Bosch to expand access to our range for independent pet retailers and their customers," said Amber Cordero, co-founder of The New Zealand Natural Pet Food Co. "Partnerships like this make all the difference. Van Den Bosch has such strong connections with independent stores, and we love their focus on service and education. Working together means more retailers can confidently bring in natural New Zealand nutrition that pets really enjoy and thrive on."
Abby Siebern, vice president of sales and purchasing at John A. Van Den Bosch, highlighted the addition of wild brushtail protein to the distributor's offerings.
"Their premium food and clean ingredient panels fill a niche in a category we were missing," Siebern said. "They also stand out from most others in this category by offering a new and unique recipe, wild brushtail. This invasive species in New Zealand is high in protein and a great alternative for pets with chicken or beef allergies. We can't wait to see this partnership flourish in the coming years."
The New Zealand Natural Pet Food Co. products are now available to John A. Van Den Bosch customers through the company's website and October catalog.
