Buying pet treats in bulk and repackaging them under your own brand name can be a great way to expand your product line or easily create treats under your own brand.
Why Create Your Own Brand of Dog Treats?
More than half of dog owners consider a brand name to be important when purchasing pet products (APPA), so it's important to make sure you keep customers coming back. Ordering stock bags or boxes online and applying your own sticker or stamp can be a great way to keep costs down and brand treats as your own.
