, Regional Managing Director for Purina UK & Ireland said:
During the pandemic, Purina donated over £190,000 to charity partners across the UK & Ireland (including Cats Protection, Canine Partners, the RSPCA and the DSPCA in Ireland ) that helped to ensure that our four legged friends were not forgotten at the height of the crisis. The donations were aimed at helping charities struggling with the loss of their usual income to still provide ongoing support to pets in their care. Over 150,000 meals were also donated directly to animal welfare charities across the UK and Ireland. In addition, 550,000 meals were donated to Community Shop - a social enterprise supermarket - which sells food to its members at discounted rates. Meaning that much-loved family pets could continue to be fed when finances became strained due to COVID-19.
The report also highlights the changes facing the sector as a whole. Based on insights from market research and more than 100 interviews to industry experts, Purina has shared
that will shape - or are already shaping - the future of the petcare as well as
