How We Make a Difference

Our two focuses for our initiatives align with our foundational beliefs and our vision of Food and Companionship Enriching Life. 

  • Healthier Animals
  • Healthier People
  • Healthier Planet
  • Healthier Enterprise

We support healthier animals by promoting products and services to deliver improved animal well-being while advocating for and supporting the veterinarians that care for our pets and farm animals.

Food and companionship – the two focus areas of our healthier people pillar. Through antimicrobial stewardship activities, targeted outreach to small-scale producers and better understanding of the human-animal bond, we enable our vision of enriching lives.

We support a healthier planet by continuously improving our operational efficiency to minimize environmental impact while developing products and packaging to help our customers do the same. 

We support a healthier enterprise through strong sustainability governance and building an environment where employees feel safe, engaged and accountable as owners.
