GAGA Pet Food Co., Ltd., strategically located in Rizhao, Shandong Province, China, stands as a premier enterprise specializing in high-end freeze-dried pet food manufacturing. With over a decade of dedicated expertise in pet food science R&D, high-capacity vacuum freeze-drying production, and global export distribution, we support pet food brands, wholesalers, and retail giants around the globe.
Our commitment lies in crafting human-grade, biologically appropriate food choices that maximize natural nutrition. Focusing on critical pet health markets, we harness raw organ superfoods to provide optimal levels of taurine, essential fatty acids, and clean proteins that modern pet parents demand.
An in-depth analysis of the macroeconomic trends driving the demand for clean, single-ingredient organ proteins in the global pet care industry.
Consumers actively seek out "clean labels" without fillers, grains, or synthetic preservatives. Freeze-dried chicken hearts provide a clean, 100% natural, single-ingredient organ meat that perfectly matches this market demand.
Organ treats command premium positioning in pet boutiques and veterinary clinics. Importers benefit from high retail value-to-weight ratios, saving substantial ocean freight costs while increasing profit margins.
With water content reduced to under 5% via sublimation, freeze-dried chicken hearts offer a stable shelf life of up to 18-24 months without refrigeration, ideal for long-distance transport and warehousing logistics.
Chicken hearts are not just basic offal; they represent highly bioavailable muscle meat packed with dense micro-nutrients. The freeze-drying process locks in these natural compounds without the structural degradation caused by traditional high-heat baking or canning.
To support global supply chains, Gaga Pet Food operates a highly optimized manufacturing blueprint designed for consistent high-volume production. We control all steps from cold storage raw material receiving to low-temperature moisture extraction.
Our infrastructure features 6 advanced vacuum freeze-drying lines running round-the-clock, generating a reliable 4,000 kilograms daily output. Backed by over 20 professional technical engineers, our facility has an annual production capacity reaching 2,000 metric tons, preventing stockouts and ensuring cost stability for bulk importers.
How we preserve cell structure, biological enzymes, and natural taste through precise temperature control and thermodynamic sublimation.
Fresh raw chicken hearts are rapidly flash-frozen to below -40°C. This forms microscopic ice crystals that protect cellular fibers, maintaining natural textures upon rehydration.
Under high vacuum pressure (below 10 Pa), frozen water converts directly into vapor. This process removes over 95% of moisture without applying high heat, preserving active proteins and delicate enzymes.
A secondary drying phase extracts bound water down to <5% moisture level. This guarantees robust microbial defense and stability for storage, logistics, and shelf-display.
We are a dedicated manufacturing facility focused entirely on B2B OEM & ODM services. By not operating a proprietary brand, we completely eliminate conflicts of interest with our partners, dedicating our resources to helping your private label grow.
Whether you represent a fast-growing start-up or an established multinational pet supply chain, we offer tailored services across every stage, including formulation design, shape prototyping, structural packaging support, and global logistics coordination.
We offer low minimum order quantities (MOQs) on catalog products, enabling you to test new markets. We support mixed wholesaling of diverse product lines and provide product images and regulatory documents to help you launch quickly.
Our experienced R&D team can refine custom formulations to meet specific veterinary standards or nutritional profiles. We provide fast-track production, customized packaging compatibility testing, and dedicated supply contracts to secure your inventory pipeline year-round.
Beyond single-ingredient whole hearts, we manufacture custom formats, including cod-stuffed chicken hearts, freeze-dried raw organ powders for food toppings, and functional patties fortified with goat milk, pumpkin, or spinach.
A step-by-step path designed to turn your product vision into market-ready retail packaging.
We consult with your team to detail target demographics, active formulation specs, and localized trade requirements.
Our laboratory works to calibrate nutrient densities, adjust protein levels, and balance functional compounds to match AAFCO/FEDIAF profiles.
We help source and test packaging formats, including high-barrier stand-up pouches, custom jars, and bulk boxes designed to protect freeze-dried treats from humidity.
Within 10 days, we deliver custom-manufactured prototypes to your office, allowing your team to evaluate density, texture, and taste.
Approved products enter mass production across our automated freeze-drying lines under strict cleanroom conditions.
Every production batch undergoes safety clearance protocols to ensure zero pathogen risk (Salmonella, E. coli, Listeria) before leaving the factory.
We coordinate logistics, export clearance, and ocean transport, handling customs documents for smooth clearance in destination ports.
We gather market feedback, assist with stock replenishment planning, and work with you on future product iterations.
Exporting pet food globally requires strict compliance with international food safety laws. Gaga Pet Food enforces food safety principles patterned after human-grade food production. Our manufacturing facilities are registered and fully compliant with FDA regulations, HACCP food management programs, and ISO quality management standards.
Every single step—from testing raw ingredients for heavy metals to final metal detection post-packaging—is recorded, providing full batch traceability. This ensures your products comply with import requirements in the United States, Europe, Southeast Asia, South Korea, and other international jurisdictions.
We assist brands in acquiring all necessary import documents, raw sourcing certificates, and health clearances required by customs officials worldwide.
Designed for premium nutritional needs: from dry meal mixers and raw diet toppers to rehydrated treats for senior pets.
Crucial answers to logistics, safety protocols, customized packaging options, and order minimums.
We source our fresh raw materials exclusively from CIQ-registered, standardized slaughterhouses that maintain cold-chain transport. In the factory, we apply strict time-temperature profiles during sublimation. Additionally, we support options like High-Pressure Processing (HPP) or post-freeze thermal treatment, followed by microbiology testing (SGS/third-party) for Salmonella and Listeria on every batch.
For catalog formulations packaged in our standard configurations, the MOQ starts at 100 kg. For fully customized recipes or custom printed packaging pouches, our MOQ ranges from 500 kg to 1,000 kg, depending on raw material sourcing and sizing demands.
Yes. We provide complete documentation support, including Health Certificates, Certificates of Origin, Ingredient Analyses, Flow Charts, and Factory Audits. As an FDA-registered exporter, we help simplify custom clearance into the United States, EU countries, South Korea, and Southeast Asia.
Freeze-dried treats are highly hygroscopic. We use thick, food-grade multilayer laminated foil bags (such as PET/AL/PE structures) that provide barrier properties against moisture, light, and oxygen. We also insert food-grade oxygen absorbers and desiccant packs to maintain freshness throughout the shelf-life.
Once samples are approved and deposit and packaging files are finalized, our standard lead time is 15 to 30 days. Repeat orders with pre-stored packaging bags can be delivered within 15 days, supported by our six automated vacuum freeze-drying lines.
Yes. We can customize the product format to fit your brand. This includes whole chicken hearts, sliced rings, cubes for cat food mixers, or ground powder for functional food toppings.
