An innovative fresh dog food company, Tuggs, has just raised £1.1 million to transform pet nutrition with an eco-friendly twist. By blending insects with meats, fish, and vegetables, Tuggs is not only prioritizing pup’s health but also championing a sustainable future.
- Funding Success: Secured £1.1 million from various institutional investors and angel backers.
- Eco-Friendly Approach: Insect protein uses up to 95% less land, water, and carbon emissions compared to beef, addressing the environmental impact of pet food, which accounts for 30% of food-related carbon emissions.
- Growth and Expansion: Launched in late 2022, Tuggs has sold over 350,000 meals across the UK and doubled its team size to enhance customer service and product development.
- Local Production: The startup has moved its entire production to the UK, allowing for better quality control and alignment with sustainable practices.
- Direct-to-Consumer Model: Operating on a subscription basis, Tuggs focuses on providing high-quality, sustainable pet food to environmentally conscious consumers.
