Explore our premium freeze-dried solutions designed to satisfy nutritional demands and optimize market share.
GAGA Pet Food Co., Ltd., located in Rizhao, Shandong Province, is a premier, dedicated manufacturer specializing in high-quality freeze-dried pet food. With more than 10 years of research and development, production, and sales expertise, we deliver pet nutrition that adheres to the strictest global regulatory frameworks.
Our raw materials are strictly human-grade, preserving natural flavors and nutritional profiles without additives, artificial preservatives, or colors. We support global retailers, private labels, and distribution channels with scale, quality assurance, and dynamic OEM/ODM capabilities.
How we solve raw material sustainability, tracking, and processing variables for bulk distribution.
We source our raw Salmon from certified fisheries in the North Pacific and Atlantic Oceans. This ensures our bulk salmon is packed with rich marine proteins, Astaxanthin, and active marine lipids like EPA and DHA, promoting optimal cardiac health and coat vitality in pets.
Upon harvesting, the fresh salmon is flash-frozen at -30°C within hours to arrest microbial activity. Under controlled temperature shipping containers, the product arrives at our Rizhao manufacturing plant, maintaining absolute freshness without oxidative rancidity.
Every single batch of raw salmon is fully traceable back to its vessel or aquaculture origin. Inbound materials undergo strict heavy metals (Mercury, Lead) and histamine analysis prior to clearance, establishing a secure line of clean nutrition for your brand.

Global Brands Served under OEM
The premiumization of the pet food segment has led to a global demand surge for single-ingredient, high-protein treats. Freeze-dried salmon ranks among the fastest-growing options in North America, Europe, and Northeast Asia due to its clean label status.
Industry analysts forecast double-digit CAGR for freeze-dried marine treats. Brands are replacing highly processed kibble with nutrition-dense, raw toppers that appeal to modern consumers seeking ancestral canine and feline diets. GAGA Pet Food offers wholesale bulk distribution, tailored dice sizes (e.g., 8mm, 10mm, 12mm cubes), and private label solutions to scale your business alongside market growth.
Understanding the physics behind our vacuum freeze-drying process to maintain premium nutritional density.
Salmon cubes are quickly frozen to -35°C to form small ice crystal structures, ensuring the cellular matrix of the fish is not damaged, preserving natural bite texture.
Under a strict vacuum of 10-50 Pa, gentle heat is applied to sublimate 90% of the water content directly from ice to vapor, avoiding liquid water phases.
Remaining bound moisture is vaporized by gradually increasing chamber temperatures. Moisture levels drop under 3%, preventing mold or oxidative degradation.
Products are packed under Modified Atmosphere Packaging with nitrogen flush to prevent oxidation of delicate Omega fatty acids, achieving a 24-month shelf life.
Our facility houses 6 advanced vacuum freeze-drying tunnels running 24/7. We produce up to 4 metric tons of premium freeze-dried products daily. Unlike competitors, we specialize exclusively in manufacturing for third-party brands and private labels. We do not operate a proprietary consumer brand, completely preventing conflicts of interest in retail distribution.
Whether you require standard cubes, powders for supplement mixes, or compound treats combined with egg yolk, goat milk, or pumpkin, our dedicated team of 20+ food engineering specialists can deliver physical prototypes within 10 days.
We source clean, natural raw proteins to manufacture a broad range of premium pet treats.

Understanding how global brands implement our wholesale freeze-dried salmon bulk products.
Felines are obligate carnivores that require high amounts of taurine, quality proteins, and healthy fats. Freeze-dried salmon serves as a rich source of highly digestible lipids and amino acids. Feline health benefits include:
Commercial dog kibble often loses vital nutrients due to the high-heat extrusion process. Incorporating freeze-dried salmon as a topper provides a raw nutrient boost that is convenient for pet owners. Key canine applications include:
Our commitment to food safety and process control is backed by heavy investments in clean production technology.
Every batch of freeze-dried salmon is processed through dual-line metal detectors and X-ray sorting systems to ensure it is free from residual fishbones, foreign materials, and contamination. In addition, our thermal pasteurization step acts as a critical control point (CCP) to eliminate pathogens like Salmonella and Listeria without degrading the protein matrix.
