Pet Food Contract Manufacturers
Key factors to consider when hiring pet food contract manufacturers for your product may be more extensive than you realize. Today’s pet food industry exceeds $24 billion in the United States alone. And, now that e-commerce has made this a global economy, the amount of money present in this industry globally is astounding. But, even with all of these potential profits in line, there’s a great deal of competitiveness in this market. New companies are making it to market on a regular basis and that means your product needs to stand out.
What Factors Matter When Choosing a Manufacturer?
The good news is there are many pet food contract manufacturers available to specifically manufacturer your unique product. The key here is to choose a manufacturer that specializes in pet food and one that can provide exceptional access to the ingredients or materials you need on a reliable basis. But, there’s more to it.
Many times, companies looking to launch a new pet food brand or line will need to seek out a manufacturer that can do more than just offer a consistent, high-quality product. They also need a company that can keep costs down from the product development phase through the completion of the project. How can you make sure that happens? Look for a company that offers the features you need such as:
-
- Low minimum order requirements – to help keep your costs under control.
- No setup fees or low setup fees – to ensure you get a good fresh start
- Access to distributors – you likely will need to help getting your product to market easily
You also need to consider the company’s ability to meet regulatory requirements, aid you in the packaging process (what types do they offer) as well as helping you to achieve the goals you have with finding unique ingredients such as organic products.
If you are thinking about launching a new pet food, there is market share to do so profitably. However, for that to be the case, it will be increasingly important for companies like your own to seek out a reliable, experienced pet food contract manufacturer that an offer you the customization and flexibility you need to get your product designed and into the hands of your consumer quickly. You also need a company that can be one to help give you the edge in this market.
