Mera Petfood develops its dog and cat food based on great affection for pets and an ethical approach to its work. In coming up with creative product solutions, its nutritional scientists don't just follow any trend indiscriminately, but pay attention to substance, desirability and reason - always for the benefit of the pet. The products and marketing concepts generate a steady stream of new stimuli, thereby also assisting retail partners. "We give our best on a daily basis for our customers' pets," states the company. This is why it believes in omitting colourings and preservatives, flavourings, vitamin K3, sugar, soya and genetically modified ingredients or exotic sources of meat from all products.
