Formula Raw opens new plant in Montreal

Pet food company Formula Raw opens a new 15,000-sf manufacturing facility in Montreal.

The new plant boosts its monthly production of premium freeze-dried foods and treats for dogs and cats from 7,500 kg to over 30,000 kg.

The facility is certified by CFIA and MAPAQ. The company has also secured USDA export approval.

“We built this company out of love for our own dogs and cats,” said co-founder Dimitri Manousos. “What started in a tiny facility is now a nationally recognized brand, thanks to an incredible team and a growing community of pet parents who refuse to compromise on quality.”

Formula Raw crafts every recipe using whole, traceable ingredients, sourced locally whenever possible. With no additives, fillers, preservatives, or grains, each batch reflects the brand’s clean-label philosophy.

Already shipping to Asia and expanding into Europe and the U.A.E., the company is now actively seeking U.S. retail and distribution partners.
