Transforming Pet Care
Drools has spearheaded a transformation in the pet care industry by emphasising quality nutrition in response to the trend of treating pets as family. We offer a wide range of products for different dietary needs, life stages, breeds, and health requirements, ensuring top-notch ingredients and strict quality control. Our “Back of the Pack” campaign encourages pet owners to understand the listed ingredients in pet food for essential nutrients.
We ensure nationwide accessibility through e-commerce, including quick commerce platforms for swift replenishment, and strong distribution in retail channels including specialty stores, veterinary clinics, supermarkets, and pharmacies. Besides, digital advertising is key to our marketing, helping us reach a broad audience, along with collaborations with celebrities, veterinarians, and breeders to educate pet parents on balanced nutrition.
