PawCo Foods is celebrating its three-year anniversary, marking a period of outstanding growth, innovation, and commitment to sustainability in the dog food industry. In this time, the company has grown by 1000% year over year.

Since its inception, PawCo, a subscription-based dog meal delivery service, has aimed to revolutionize canine nutrition with its plant-based, vegan sustainable products.

The company has realized:

  • 280,000,000 liters of water conserved

  • 935,000 kg of CO2 emissions reduced

  • $2,000,000 raised from top VCs

  • $1,000,000 generated in revenue

  • 300,000 meals served to dogs

  • 2,100 livestock lives saved

In its third year of operations, PawCo reached a significant financial milestone by achieving $1,000,000 in annual recurring revenue and experiencing an impressive 1000% growth year over year. This tremendous growth reflects the increasing demand for sustainable, plant-based nutrition for dogs and the trust that customers place in PawCo's products.

"Three years ago when I founded PawCo, I couldn't even dream about hitting $1M ARR and building this amazing team," said Mahsa Vazin, founder and CEO of PawCo Foods. "While I'm proud of this achievement and celebrating it with my team, I feel that this is just the beginning of our journey, and we are excited to be leading the new generation of pet food in the market."

PawCo introduced two products this year to complement its main GreenBites product: LuxBites and InstaBites are premium food products made with post-biotics, fermented proteins like pea, fresh fruits and vegetables, and amino acids, vitamins, and minerals.

PawCo's innovative efforts were recognized on a grand scale when the company won the 2024 Rally IN-prize pitch competition, securing $2,000,000 in seed funding. This accomplishment not only validates PawCo's vision but also fuels its capacity to drive further advances in plant-based dog nutrition.

The company opened its second production site in Indiana, increasing its production capabilities to meet growing demand. Additionally, PawCo expanded its original San Francisco facility, underscoring its commitment to quality and scalability. Alongside these developments, the PawCo team has grown by 27%.

Founded by a former ImpossibleFoods employee and supported by a dedicated team of scientists and board-certified animal nutritionists, PawCo pioneered GreenMeat, the first fully plant-based meat tailored for pet food, and are now expanding their product range. The team's dedication lies in offering pets complete and balanced plant-based meals. These new products are set to redefine canine nutrition with their unique features and health benefits.
