Ensuring Quality from the Source
We handle some food products in our own processing facilities while entrusting others to reliable local partners.
By collaborating with a select group of suppliers, we prioritize the quality and safety of our ingredients.
A pet food supply chain?
We employ a comprehensive approach to producing freeze-dried pet food, which encompasses several key stages:
- We start with high-quality, carefully selected ingredients.
- The ingredients are meticulously ground and blended to achieve the desired balance.
- The mixture is cooked to remove moisture content while preserving essential nutrients.
- After cooking, the mixture is flash frozen.
- The frozen mixture enters the freeze-drying chamber, where the water is extracted by sublimation.
- Once the freeze-drying process is complete, the product is carefully packaged and shipped to our customers.
Supply Chain Management for Freeze-Dried Petfoods
Our stable supply chain solution arose as a result of a problem we observed in the industry.
As we have seen periodically in commerce, and particularly exacerbated during the pandemic years, the supply chain can face severe disruptions in an economy that depends on just-in-time delivery, with multiple sources of raw materials, manufacturing, packaging, printing, distribution and delivery.
This becomes particularly acute when any link in the chain experiences unpredictable changes.
For example, when the price of raw materials increases, costs rise, making manufacturers uncompetitive.
Consequently, even if companies can obtain more ingredients, tight margins make profitability difficult.
The companies are therefore unable to sustain their operations over the long term or to compete effectively and maintain their market presence.
Increasing Demand for Freeze-Dried Pet Food
The rise in raw material prices is directly linked to an upsurge in demand. As demand escalates, more funds are allocated towards procuring these raw materials, thereby driving prices higher. Conversely, when demand dwindles, raw material prices follow suit.
In recent times, the demand for freeze-dried pet food has surged. This trend can be attributed to a growing health consciousness among pet owners, who prioritize optimal nutrition for their pets.
Blockchain Solution for Proprietary Branded Pet Food
We believe that the best way to solve this problem is to create a sustainable supply chain that is completely self-sufficient. This provides us with stability in raw material prices and allows us to continue producing quality products.
Panchas Paws is committed to addressing this challenge by establishing a self-sufficient and sustainable supply chain. This approach ensures stability in raw material prices and enables us to maintain the production of high-quality products.
One of our long-term objectives is to implement a blockchain solution for our branded pet food. This initiative aims to provide complete transparency to our customers, allowing them to track the sourcing and production process of their pet food. Through this, we aim to build trust and strengthen our relationship with customers.
By establishing a sustainable supply chain, we can remain competitive while avoiding disruptions in the availability of raw materials. This enables us to consistently deliver quality products to our customers and facilitates the scalability of our operations.
