Danish pet food company Globe Buddy has introduced a super-premium dog food based on insect protein.
Globe Buddy Brown features protein from black soldier fly larvae, which is suitable for all dogs, especially those with sensitive digestion or intolerances to traditional meats, the manufacturer states.
The product comes with a third-party verified carbon footprint, which is just over half that of the ingredients used in the market’s average dog food, according to calculations performed by the consultancy firm Viegand Maagøe on behalf of Globe Buddy.
Bjarne Gravesen Jensen, ceo and co-founder of Globe Buddy, said: “We have made it easy to feed your furry friend a healthy and tasty diet while doing some good for the planet, simply by reducing the climate impact of dog food.
“While many companies have brought what are claimed to be green pet foods to market, we saw a need among pet-parents for increased transparency in the environmental sustainability of their dog’s food. Our brand aims to address this unmet need.”
Packaging features a fully recyclable box for direct-to-consumer distribution.
