New Zealand Petfoods is a 100% New Zealand-owned pet food maker with its Oamaru store at 16 Ouse Street, Oamaru North. The business began on a farm in the 1980s, adding value to livestock, and now makes raw dog and cat food from locally sourced ingredients. Its range includes frozen raw meals, biscuits, natural treats, kibble and supplements, including products from Pure Maranui and Fourflax for bone, joint, skin and coat care. The website says the company runs its own petfood abattoir at Adair, which has operated for more than 30 years. It has stores in Timaru, Oamaru and Dunedin, and delivers frozen polybins across the South Island. Freight options and rates are on the website. The website lists free pickup at the Oamaru store, usually ready within 24 hours.
The company says it has been 100% owned and operated since 1987, and that its ingredients are made from whole New Zealand ingredients handled from source to final product. For owners who want raw food for their dogs or cats, and who buy in bulk, the frozen polybin delivery and the Oamaru pickup offer two ways to get it. The website also publishes winter feeding advice for joints, skin and coats.
