ORIJEN™ Launches FRESHPREY: A New Era in Fresh Pet Food
ORIJEN™, renowned for its commitment to biologically appropriate pet nutrition, has just made a splash in the pet food industry with the introduction of FRESHPREY. This innovative line aims to redefine the fresh pet food market by providing nutrient-dense, protein-rich recipes that cater to the natural dietary needs of pets.
A New Standard in Fresh Pet Food
Analyzing the growing demand for high-quality ingredients among pet owners, ORIJEN has developed FRESHPREY, which stands at the forefront of pet nutrition. With its WholePrey™ feeding philosophy, FRESHPREY showcases fresh or raw animal ingredients—meat, organs, and bones—within the first five ingredients of each recipe. This adherence to natural feeding principles ensures that pets receive a balanced diet that mirrors what they would consume in the wild.
The meticulous crafting of FRESHPREY involves a gentle sous vide cooking process that helps maintain essential nutrients while delivering an authentic flavor that pets love. “For us, this is more than just a product launch; it’s the culmination of relentless passion and research,” shared Mark Fannin, Global VP of ORIJEN. “We know pet parents would climb mountains for their companions. We share that devotion and channeled it into creating the highest-quality fresh pet food possible.”
A Journey Into the Wilderness
To commemorate the launch of FRESHPREY, ORIJEN took it to another level with the “World's Most Extreme Unboxing.” This initiative saw ORIJEN team members, along with influencer adventurers from “Wander with Willow,” trek into the majestic Colorado wilderness at an altitude of 12,000 feet. The team unveiled FRESHPREY amid breathtaking mountain views, demonstrating the brand's dedication to adventure and the bond between pets and their owners.
The first taste of FRESHPREY not only celebrated the adventurous spirit but also emphasized how ORIJEN’s products could enhance the quality of life for pets and their families.
