Behind Britain’s best independent pet brands
We Design, Develop, Make and Deliver Exceptional Pet Brands
We are a British pet nutrition manufacturer and the team behind Griffiths’ Dog Food®, Clydach Farm® and Clinigol® Veterinary Science — alongside a select group of partner brands who trust us to produce nutrition on their behalf.
Owning our own labels means every process we sell to a client is a process we run for ourselves: the same recipes, the same audits, the same accountability.

How a programme runs
From Brief to First Commercial Run in Six Controlled Stages
Published so buyers can plan realistically — not a sales promise, but the sequence we actually follow with new partners.
STAGE 01
Commercial & Nutritional Brief
Target species, life stage, price architecture, channel and claims are agreed before formulation begins.
STAGE 02
Formulation & Costing
Recipes modelled to nutritional guidelines with raw-material availability and landed cost tested side by side.
STAGE 03
Pilot Batch & Sampling
Small-scale production for palatability, kibble integrity, density and analytical verification.
STAGE 04
Label & Legal Review
Statutory statements, feeding guides, analytical constituents and market-specific artwork checks.
STAGE 05
Scale-Up & QA Release
Full batch production with in-process checks, retained samples and certificate of analysis on release.
STAGE 06
Supply & Review
Rolling forecast planning, pallet configuration for freight and quarterly performance review.
Every batchSampled, retained & documented
Quality, safety & accountability
Why Buyers Audit Us and Stay
- 01
Documented traceability
Raw material intake, in-process checks and finished-goods release are recorded batch by batch, so a query can be traced back to intake within hours.
- 02
Nutritionist-led specification
Recipes are signed off against recognised nutritional guidelines before commercial release — not reverse-engineered from a competitor bag.
- 03
Responsible sourcing
Preference for British and regionally sourced proteins and cereals, with supplier specifications and approval records maintained for each line.
- 04
Real operational transparency
Lead times, batch minimums and constraints are stated up front. Partners plan against facts, which is why our repeat-supply relationships run for years.
Buyer questions
Answers Procurement Teams Ask First
Practical detail for brand owners, retailers, distributors and veterinary buyers evaluating a UK manufacturing partner.
What is the minimum order quantity for private label dog food?
Production runs are planned by recipe and pack format. Dry extruded kibble is typically scheduled in full batch multiples to protect nutrient consistency, while supplements and treats can be packed in smaller trial volumes — useful when a new label needs market validation before scaling.
How long does a new pet food formulation take?
A typical development cycle runs 8–16 weeks: nutritional brief and formulation, raw material sourcing and specification, pilot batch, palatability and analytical verification, label and legal review, then the first commercial run. Reformulations of an existing recipe move considerably faster.
Can you support export and international labelling requirements?
Yes. We prepare export documentation, support health certification, review multilingual label artwork against destination requirements and plan pallet configurations for efficient container loading — working directly with importers and distributors in their own time zones.
Do you manufacture veterinary and clinical diets?
We do. Our Clinigol® Veterinary Science programme covers controlled-nutrient clinical diets with restricted raw-material panels, tightened analytical tolerances and documented batch traceability suitable for professional and clinic channels.
Will you produce a recipe we already own?
Yes — contract manufacturing of a client-owned specification is a core service. We validate the recipe against raw-material availability and process capability, then run a pilot batch so the transferred product matches the reference sample before scale-up.
