Quality Pet Food 100 Million Dogs & Cats Count On
Each year, we feed millions of cats and dogs around the world—including our own. It’s an awesome responsibility that we don’t take lightly. Which is why we make the quality and safety of your pet’s food (and ours) our top priority.
Raising the Bar with 100,000+ Quality Checks Per Day
At Purina, we never cut corners. Every batch of food we make goes through a rigorous seven-step process to ensure it’s not only safe, but high quality.
Check 1: Screen Suppliers
We conduct extensive auditing and sampling to confirm both potential and current suppliers’ facilities, ingredients and packaging materials continuously meet our high standards and that they’re sourcing responsibly.
Check 2: Inspect Ingredients
We don’t just rely on our suppliers for quality checks. We personally inspect every ingredient that arrives at our factories to double check it’s up to par with our high standards before it goes into our pet food.
Check 3: Monitor Batching
With the help of technology, our team members carefully monitor batches to ensure they contain the right proportions of ingredients and follow our expert-developed dog and cat food recipes so they’re complete and balanced meals for your pet.
Check 4: Analyze Samples
We analyze our food at multiple points throughout the production process to ensure our final product will meet your pet’s nutritional needs.
Check 5: Evaluate Dog & Cat Food Packaging
Our team members double check packages are filled and sealed correctly to ensure freshness and labeled with a unique code so we can track everything back to its source.
Check 6: Verify Final Product
Our on-site teams conduct a final review to confirm each bag, can and pouch of pet food has met all Purina's quality standards before they leave the factory.
Check 7: Ensure Safe Storage
Our warehouse team makes sure our storage facilities and trailers are "Purina clean." We work with retailers to help them safely store our products until you buy them.
Expertly Crafted. Veterinarian Approved.
We work closely with a robust team of pet experts, including veterinarians, nutritionists and behaviorists. From selecting purposeful ingredients to developing complete and balanced recipes, nothing ends up in your pet’s food bowl without their stamp of approval.
