FRPT

Freshpet, Inc.

A maker of fresh, refrigerated dog and cat food, Freshpet gently cooks preservative-free meals and treats sold from its own branded refrigerators inside grocery and pet stores. Three former pet food executives founded the company in 2006 after noticing how popular fresh pet food was in Australia, and they named it Freshpet to reflect that mission. To win over hesitant retailers, the founders supplied their own "Freshpet Fridge" units to stores, helping launch the refrigerated pet food category.
