Hug Pet Food urges hospitality trade to stock up on meals for pets
Along with its ready meals, the company could also supply liveried freezers
The Hug Pet Food Company has launched a campaign urging restaurants and hotels to offer meals for pets on their menus.
HugMyDog ready meals (300g) are being made available to the hospitality industry as part of the campaign at a trade price of £2.15 per meal.
Along with its ready meals, the company could also supply liveried freezers.
HugMyDog range are frozen ready meals that can be cooked straight from the freezer in their own 100% sustainable packaging.
The meals are made from British meat (no bones or offal) with organic vegetables and fruit (no grains, legumes or fillers) plus a sprinkle of essential vitamins, minerals and herbs.
The range includes Beef with Sweet Potato, Lamb with Mint, Chicken with Carrots and Venison with Blackberries.
Sara Pearson, co-founder of Hug, said: “We applaud the hospitality industry who in recent times have opened its doors to dogs. During the pandemic three million more dogs and cats came into our homes. These pets have become intrinsic in the lives of their owners and it is not surprising they don’t want to exclude them from outings for meals or overnight stays.
“But simply providing a bowl of water and maybe a treat is not enough. HugMyDog is the ideal solution for the hospitality trade as the meals are safe to be stored alongside human food and can be readily available for serving in a matter of minutes direct from the freezer via the microwave.”
She added: “We want to encourage the hospitality industry to add a section on their menus offering pet meals. Afterall you would not invite or encourage someone into your home and not offer them food and drink.The hospitality industry will be missing out if it does not see dogs and their owners as a source of goodwill and profit.”
