May 12, 2025 – Pet Food Experts (PFX), a leading distributor supporting pet retailers, announced the expansion of Portland Pet Food Company in its curated brand portfolio. Beginning early May, PFX will offer Portland Pet Food Company’s line of fresh, human-grade dog and cat foods and treats to retailers across the Pacific Northwest and West regions.
Founded in 2014 by Katie McCarron, Portland Pet Food Company was inspired by a deeply personal mission. When Katie’s beloved poodle, Rosie, began experiencing health challenges, she turned to home-cooked, fresh meals using the same wholesome ingredients she fed her family. Rosie thrived, living an additional three joyful years, and inspired Katie to create a company committed to bringing real food nutrition to pets everywhere.
“At Pet Food Experts, we are always seeking partners who share our passion for transparency, quality and supporting pet health,” said Nate Benner, Director of Vendor Development at Pet Food Experts. “Portland Pet Food Company’s commitment to fresh, simple ingredients and their inspiring origin story make them a natural fit for our retailers and the customers they serve.”
As per parents increasingly seek clean-label, minimally processed nutrition for their companions, Portland Pet Food Company offers a timely solution for retailers looking to meet this growing demand. Their thoughtfully crafted selection of dog and cat wet foods and treats are made with limited, human-grade ingredients, all sourced and made in the USA.
“We are thrilled to partner with Pet Food Experts and expand our reach to even more pet retailers,” said Katie McCarron. “We built our company on the belief that pets deserve the same high-quality nutrition as the rest of the family, and we’re excited to work with a distributor that shares our values.”
