As the market for pet foods and animal supplements expands, more companies are looking to nutritive and structure/function claims to differentiate themselves.
In the US, animal feed ingredients, including those used in pet food, have several potential pathways to market under the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) or at the State level. The Animal Health Supplement industry is a growing opportunity and regulatory requirements are determined by the intended use of the product.
In Canada, pet foods are regulated by the Canadian Food Inspection Agency (CFIA) and supplements or Veterinary Health Products (VHPs) by Health Canada.
Collectively, these Government agencies enforce applicable Acts and Regulations to ensure that products intended for pets and food-producing animals meet compliance requirements for ingredient content, product claims, and risk to human and animal health.
