GAGA Pet Food Co., Ltd., located in Rizhao, Shandong Province, is a professional manufacturer specialising in high-quality freeze-dried pet food with more than ten years of dedicated experience in research and development, production, and sales. For over a decade, we have focused on creating premium freeze-dried products that meet the highest international standards of nutrition, safety, and palatability for pets worldwide.
With the rapid shift in consumer preferences towards clean-label, high-meat content, and minimum processing, global pet food sourcing directors face the daunting task of validating partners at prominent industry trade shows. As a dedicated OEM/ODM supplier exhibiting and supplying top-tier distributors globally, we provide structured, risk-free scalability to sustain your retail shelf space and supply chain integrity.
Why modern purchasing agencies look beyond pricing and focus heavily on processing technology and regulatory credentials at Asian trade fairs.
At events like Pet Fair Asia, CIPS (China International Pet Show), and Zoomark, buyers analyze supply elasticity. As regional regulations tighten (such as EU registration and FDA compliance), having a manufacturer in Shandong with deep coastal logistics logistics routes is crucial for competitive edge.
The main risk of purchasing freeze-dried pet food in bulk is microbial contamination (such as Salmonella) and variable rehydration rates. In-person auditing at trade exhibitions allows buyers to confirm the supplier's commitment to raw-material traceability, HACCP protocols, and batch testing certificates.
Pet owners treat dogs and cats like family. Sourcing managers at trade shows look for innovative formulas, such as freeze-dried goat milk biscuits, raw meat bone sticks, and fruit/vegetable combinations, to provide the high-protein, clean-label foods consumers demand.
We operate six advanced vacuum freeze-drying production lines, with a daily production capacity of up to 4,000 kilograms, allowing us to build a stable and efficient core supply chain for freeze-dried pet treats. Our team consists of more than 20 professional technical personnel, supported by an independent product research and development department.
We specialise in customised solutions, offering a highly responsive service that can complete the entire process—from receiving samples and discussing detailed requirements to producing finished samples—in as little as 10 days. This flexibility enables us to meet diverse market demands and support our partners effectively.
Providing long-term supply chain security, brand exclusivity, and customizable formulations for Tier-1 distributors worldwide.
Unlike many manufacturers who sell their own brands in competition with their clients, Gaga Pet Food focuses purely on manufacturing and does not operate a private label brand. We dedicate all of our resources to professional OEM and ODM customization.
By focusing entirely on production quality and craftsmanship, we avoid competing with our clients in the marketplace. This business model protects the intellectual property, recipes, and market positioning of our partnering brands.
How our low-temperature sublimation process locks in bioavailable nutrients, maintains structure, and guarantees shelf stability.
By lowering chamber pressure below the triple point of water, ice content transitions directly into water vapor. This process avoids high heat, preserving heat-sensitive vitamins, taurine, and vital amino acids in our poultry, fish, and red meat.
Our vacuum systems dry treats to a target moisture level of under 6%. This low moisture level inhibits bacterial multiplication and fungal spore germination naturally, providing a clean, preservative-free shelf life of up to 18 months.
Because the cellular structural matrix remains intact during freeze-drying, our treats feature a porous sponge-like physical state. This allows them to absorb water, goat milk, or bone broth instantly, making them easy to digest for puppies, kittens, and senior pets.
We prioritize product quality. Our key production control points and management system comply with HACCP and ISO international standards. We manage and trace every batch of raw meat from farm to finished product.
We perform microbiological, heavy metal, and nutritional profile analyses on all inbound meat. Raw materials are processed in temperature-controlled, sanitized cleanrooms to prevent cross-contamination. Multi-stage metal detection systems inspect every finished bag of freeze-dried kibble before packing.
Successfully shipping premium pet foods to strict agricultural regulatory zones including the USA, South Korea, and Southeast Asia.

Answers to common questions from global sourcing managers about freeze-dried pet food imports and factory capabilities.
Gaga Pet Food holds FDA registration, and our manufacturing facilities operate under strict compliance with HACCP and ISO international food safety systems. We provide complete quarantine inspection and customs documentation, allowing us to export to the USA, Korea, Southeast Asia, and other regions.
We provide a rapid prototyping service, turning sample requests into completed product formulations within 10 days. Once the sample and packaging design are approved, standard mass production takes 15 to 30 days, depending on the order size.
We source our raw poultry, fish, and meat from certified, traceable farms in Shandong. All ingredients are inspected for pathogens and chemical residues. Processing is performed in temperature-controlled, sanitized cleanrooms, and every package passes through metal detectors before leaving the factory.
MOQ requirements vary depending on the packaging type and formulation complexity. We support trial runs and mixed wholesale orders for new buyers to help you test the market, with MOQ details determined during our initial consultation.
Freeze-drying removes water through sublimation, preserving the cellular structure, original flavor, and raw nutrients of the meat. This process avoids the high heat used in traditional extrusion, resulting in a highly palatable, nutrient-dense treat free from artificial preservatives.
