The initial success of the company was based on the product “Forza 10”. This main brand covers a variety of dry and moist food products that can effectively counter aliments in cats and dogs. “Forza 10” is the result of years of veterinary experience and clinical studies. It was created by Dr. Sergio Canello, who along with other opinion leaders in the field of food intolerance and allergies researched this new frontier of veterinary medicine.

The pet store owner is able to explain why pets suffer such evident food intolerances.To help pet store owners in their role as consultants, Sanypet promotes different activities and gives the store merchandise such as showcases, signs, fliers and information packages for customers. “Forza 10” also has a promotional day organized in pet stores by scientific informers.
