Pedigree Adult with Beef and Vegetables dog food

Pedigree is one of the most recognized pet food brands globally, with a history that tracks back to the 1930s. The brand has its roots in Great Britain, where it originated from the acquisition of Chappel Brothers by Mars Limited in 1934. Initially known for the 'Chappie' brand, it evolved over decades, eventually adopting the 'Pedigree' name globally in the late 1980s.

Today, Pedigree is manufactured in multiple countries to serve its massive worldwide market. Production facilities are located in the United Kingdom (notably in Leicestershire), the United States, Australia, and several other regions including Southeast Asia and South America. This local manufacturing strategy helps ensure freshness and reduces logistics costs for the heavy bags of kibble.

Pedigree is a flagship brand of Mars Petcare, a subsidiary of the American multinational Mars, Incorporated. Headquartered in McLean, Virginia, Mars is a private, family-owned company that has grown into the world's largest provider of pet nutrition and veterinary services, alongside its famous confectionery and food divisions.
