Palmetto, FL (August 2023): Choice Pet Products, a distributor of high-quality pet brands and products, proudly announces its partnership with Snappy Tom, a manufacturer specializing in wet cat food that gives cats of all ages the nutrition they need with all-natural healthy ingredients. Choice Pet Products will add this new line to its curated portfolio of premium brands offered to independent pet retailers.

 "With the growing demand of cat owners searching for high-protein food, we are thrilled to partner with Snappy Tom and offer our independent pet retailers a food with a taste kittens and adult cats find naturally delicious," said Rob Emery, Owner of Choice Pet Products. "We also know that many owners are equally as focused on buying foods with responsibly sourced ingredients, and the fish included in Snappy Tom products are collected through dolphin-safe practices and do not use tuna collected in fish aggregating devices," said Emery.

About Snappy Tom

Putting your pet's health before their bottom line is what they do at Snappy Tom Pet Supply. Since they process their products in their facilities and do not assign them to cheaper third-party processors, they can maintain strict quality control over everything they do. Snappy Tom processes its pet food in the same facilities as their human-grade food, making it approved by the Canadian Food Inspection Agency (CFIA) and the Food and Drug Administration (FDA). Their food contrasts with the old-fashioned "feed grade" kibble that can contain by-products, chemicals, fillers, and other ingredients defined as unfit for human consumption. They take pride in that distinction and believe it speaks to the quality and integrity of the products they put on the market.

 "Our slogan, 'Real Fish for Real Cats,' fits the mission of Choice Pet Products in bringing Natural Grain Free wet cat food products to their region. We are very excited to add Choice Pet Products to our team of distributors in North America, " said Robert Hernandez, National Sales Manager for North America. "Our brand meets the needs of cats in all life stages and the owners who look for simple ingredients. There is no need to get a dictionary to determine our ingredients. We feel Choice Pet Products is the perfect partner to distribute our products today and into the future," said Hernandez.

About Silver Honey®

After years of research and testing, a relentless search for a better way to care for our animals led to the creation of Silver Honey®.

The Silver Honey® Family of products includes Silver Honey® Hot Spot & Wound Care in ointment and spray gel formats to quickly heal cuts, scrapes, hot spots, rashes, dermatitis, and chapped paws and is safe for all animals.

Palmetto, FL (May 2023): Choice Pet Products, a distributor of high-quality pet brands and products, proudly announces its partnership with Simply Naked, a pet food supplier in the U.S. specializing exclusively in natural fish-based cat and dog food. Choice Pet Products will add this new line to its curated portfolio of premium brands offered to independent pet retailers.

"We are excited to partner with Simply Naked and increase our offering of alternative solutions for pets who suffer from allergens found in chicken and beef-based recipes. Simply Naked impressed us with their ability to harness fish's naturally occurring protein, vitamins, and micronutrients and create a complete, well-balanced meal," said Janet Carter Smith, President of Choice Pet Products. "Together, we are also standing for a sustainable future and reducing our impact on the planet because Simply Naked uses fish caught by trusted fishermen from MSC Certified Sustainable Fisheries and have a much lower impact on space and freshwater than land-based food," said Carter Smith.

About Simply Naked

North Coast Seafoods' Simply Naked™ Pet Food is focused exclusively on fish. We are not a pet food company that happens to offer seafood. We're a seafood company specializing in natural fish-based pet food. Since 1957, North Coast Seafoods has taken pride in sourcing, processing, and delivering the highest quality, sustainable seafood for the finest restaurants and retailers nationwide. After over six decades of dedicated work, it's safe to say we are more than familiar with the freshest fish. Now with the launch of Simply Naked™ Dog and Cat Foods, pets can enjoy the same premium quality as their pet parents. We're not just dabbling in fish-based pet food. It's not one of many protein options, and it's not an afterthought. Simply put, fish is our forte, the first ingredient in every Simply Naked pet food recipe. Our wild-caught fish can be found on dinner plates around the country, and now it can be found in your pet's bowl too.

"We are thrilled to partner with Choice Pet Products to further expand distributorship of Simply Naked Cat and Dog food to independent retailers throughout the Southeast, bringing 'Vitamin Sea' nutrition to their pet-passionate customers," states Jon Wooner, Pet Products Director at North Coast Seafoods.
