Explore our premium industrial-grade freeze-dried range formulated to meet global compliance and nutritional preservation standards.
In the global pet treat industry, the search intent surrounding "Stewart Freeze Dried Liver Dog Treats" represents a gold standard for single-ingredient canine nutrition. Brands, distributors, and bulk purchasers seek suppliers that can match this exact product profile: high protein, low moisture, clean label, and outstanding palatability.
As a leading pet treats factory located in Rizhao, Shandong, GAGA Pet Food Co., Ltd. leverages over 10 years of R&D and advanced vacuum freeze-drying machinery to supply premium freeze-dried poultry, mammalian, and marine-derived organ meats. By matching the nutritional parameters of the industry-classic Stewart style, we provide global B2B clients with competitive pricing structures, guaranteed raw material transparency, and highly scalable production configurations.
This technical document outlines our production capacity, supply chain safety standards, and customizable private label (OEM/ODM) pathways designed for global pet food brands looking to import premium freeze-dried liver and meat treats from China.
Our Rizhao facility operates six advanced vacuum freeze-drying production lines capable of maintaining a constant daily output of 4,000 kilograms (yielding an annual production exceeding 2,000 metric tons). Freeze-drying is a sophisticated scientific process involving phase transition, where moisture is sublimated directly from solid ice to gaseous vapor under strict vacuum controls, bypassing the liquid state entirely.
This thermal-sensitive process preserves 100% of the liver's cellular matrix, including delicate amino acids, vitamins A and B, iron, and trace minerals. The resulting treats feature a porous texture that enables rapid rehydration and locks in natural aromas without chemical humectants or artificial binders.
Our technical team comprises more than 20 professional research personnel. We specialize in tailoring custom solutions, producing physical, shelf-stable samples within 10 days of receiving custom ingredient requests.

| Analytical Parameter | Freeze-Dried Raw Liver (GAGA OEM) | Standard Oven-Dehydrated Treats | Sourcing Benefit |
|---|---|---|---|
| Crude Protein (Min) | 60.0% – 65.0% | 45.0% – 50.0% | Superior biological value and muscle-building protein profile. |
| Moisture Content (Max) | < 5.0% | 12.0% – 15.0% | Prevents mold growth; naturally extends shelf life up to 24 months. |
| Nutrient Retention | 98% of natural vitamins & iron | 50% – 60% (due to heat damage) | Preserves fragile Vitamin A, B-complex, and organic iron matrices. |
| Structure & Rehydration | Porous, soft texture; fast absorption | Hard, glass-like texture; slow hydration | Ideal for training, crushing into toppers, or soft food diets. |
| Ingredients | 100% Pure single-source liver | Commonly uses starch binders/glycerol | Clean label, hypoallergenic, zero additives. |
