NEW YORK – Bobby Flay’s Made by Nacho brand announced an exclusive partnership with Phillips Pet Food & Supplies.
“Making it more accessible for individual pet specialty retailers to stock the brand, this strategic partnership helps grow Made by Nacho’s audience nationwide and acts as a foray into marketplaces beyond big box chains,” the company stated in a press release.
Launched in 2021, Made by Nacho offers products such as wet food, dry food, meal toppers and treats.
Phillips Pet will begin offering Made by Nacho’s complete line of cat products to independent pet specialty retailers this month.
More from the release:
Each product pays homage to Bobby’s culinary roots and helps power through the dreaded palate-fatigue that cats often feel through their bone broth toppers, wet food and more. The brand pulls their expertise to cater to every type of cat, using Bobby’s eye for chef-inspired flavors, in-house Veterinarian Dr. Katja Lang for nutrition quality and Nacho to taste-test – earning the approval from cats themselves.
“We are thrilled to bring Made by Nacho into more households through this exclusive partnership with Phillips Pet,” noted Co-founder Elly Truesdell. “As the pet food industry grows, we’re seeing an unprecedented uptick in cat parents wanting nutritionally-rewarding and satiating food, treats and more. We built Made by Nacho for cats only, with taste and nutrition at our core; we are excited to have Phillips Pet be a partner that will further educate in the category.”

As an official retailer of many premium brands, now including Made by Nacho, the distribution business has connected millions of pet owners with trusted brands.

ABOUT MADE BY NACHO
Founded by Nacho Flay and his dad, Chef Bobby Flay—Made by Nacho is made for cats, by a cat. After years of watching his dad use only the best ingredients for his recipes, Nacho realized his cat food didn’t measure up. That was his a-ha moment: Cats deserve more out of their food than they were getting—and Nacho was the cat to change all that. So Nacho and Bobby got to cooking and got some help from the best in the biz—like his lifelong vet, Dr. Katja Lang, who knows her stuff. Thousands of taste tests later, Made by Nacho was born. We use a culinary approach for our cat-crafted cat food, starting with no-compromise, premium proteins like cage-free chicken, grass-fed, grain-finished beef, and sustainably caught salmon. Nacho’s constantly cooking up new recipes to help combat palate fatigue (aka the finickiness humans always talk about.) Every recipe that leaves his kitchen pairs the flavors and textures cats crave with the chef-inspired quality they deserve. For more information, visit www.MadebyNacho.com or follow @MadebyNacho.
