Royal Canin is a world-renowned brand specializing in breed-specific and health-nutrition pet food. Founded in 1968 by French veterinarian Jean Cathary, the brand was built on the philosophy of using nutritional science to improve animal health. Its early success focused on its specialized kibble for larger dog breeds, eventually expanding into targeted feline nutrition based on breed-specific traits, such as the Ragdoll formula shown here.
Today, Royal Canin operates as a global brand within the Petcare division of Mars, Incorporated. While founded in Aimargues, France, where its headquarters remain, the company utilizes a vast network of manufacturing facilities located in North America, Europe, Asia, and Brazil to meet global demand. This ensures that their complex nutritional formulas are produced close to their respective markets.
The ultimate owner of the brand is Mars, Incorporated, an American multinational corporation. Mars acquired Royal Canin in 2001 and has since integrated it into its extensive pet care portfolio, which is one of the largest in the world. The brand remains a leader in the premium pet food segment, often distributed through veterinary clinics and specialized pet retailers.
