Responsible sourcing is proliferating the industry as
processors seek to ramp up their sustainability goals.
By Nicole Kerwin | nkerwin@sosland.com
Sustainability has become a lofty goal for many in the
pet food industry as a means to appease pet parents'
environmental concerns. But sustainability is evolving
from solely focusing on environmental impacts to include
responsible sourcing.
" Many pet food companies are setting decarbonization
targets and recognizing that ingredient procurement
is a significant, if not the largest, source of emissions, "
said Allison Reser, director of sustainability and
innovation at the Pet Sustainability Coalition, Boulder,
Colo. " To meet these goals, companies must strategically
source ingredients that produce fewer emissions
or even contribute to soil regeneration and carbon
sequestration. "
Responsible sourcing is nothing new, but as consumers
continue to expect sustainability from their favorite
pet food products, many processors are faced with the
task of trying to understand what responsible sourcing
means to them.
" It makes sense that as animal lovers, pet owners are
increasingly concerned about farm animal welfare and

are extra attuned to the standards of the pet food they
buy, " detailed Maral Cavner, senior manager of corporate
policy, Farm Animal Welfare, ASPCA, New York.
" Nearly nine out of 10 (87%) of those buying pet food
reported being likely to switch to another brand of pet
food if they knew the brand put more care into where
they source their animal-derived ingredients. "
Christine Mallier, sustainability and community
relations manager
at Petcurean, Chilliwack, British
Columbia, added, " Responsible sourcing can't be defined
as a trend as it is simply the right thing to do - in the
21st Century, there is simply no place in supply chains
for things such as child labor; this must be eradicated.
As such, responsible sourcing is not only becoming increasingly
popular and respected, it's also an expected
approach to business. "
A holistic approach
Responsible sourcing takes sustainability many steps
further, not only considering the environmental impacts
of ingredients, but also animal welfare and social aspects
