Bond Pet Foods and nine other early-stage companies were selected to participate in the inaugural program, hosted by Plug and Play out of its new innovation center in Topeka, Kan.
The company has debuted its latest pet food solution, PurePal, that can increase overall appeal of a dry dog food product aroma among both pets and pet parents.
The new Pet Food Experience (PEX) Center will house the latest process technologies, testing capabilities and educational workshops to share R&D skills and knowledge with pet food and treat processors.
