(PRESS RELEASE) SAN FRANCISCO — PawCo Foods officially launched its proprietary plant-based pet food and shipped its first batch of orders on August 3rd of 2022.

The company is founded by a former ImpossibleFoods employee and backed by a team of scientists and board certified animal nutritionists. PawCo invented the world’s first fully plant-based meat that is designed specifically for pet foods. The team is committed to providing pets with complete and balanced plant-based meals.

“As a scientist, I couldn’t stand seeing Paco, my beloved dog, eating unhealthy food every day. That’s why I founded PawCo Foods – to change how our pets eat on a daily basis and make the world a greener place. I’m now dedicated to helping all of our furry friends out there to live a happy, healthy and joyful life” said Dr. Mahsa Vazin, founder and CEO of PawCo Foods.

PawCo puts forward a plant-based meat that is just as tasty as traditional meat, while also providing all the essential amino acids, vitamins, and minerals necessary for dogs to thrive. Traditional dog foods containing meat have been linked to numerous health issues in dogs, including cancer, allergies, and gastrointestinal distress. PawCo wants to improve pet health, decrease animal farming, and reduce the impact of pet food manufacturing on the environment by making tasty and nutritious plant-based dog food available in the market.

PawCo raised its seed round earlier this year and the team has been working on its proprietary plant-based meat. It publicly launched its first plant-based recipe for dogs and it’s accepting orders for new customers.
