Business Overview
We have 4,000 loyal customers who regularly beg us not to change anything in our formulas because, besides making their dogs healthy, it is the only food that heals allergies and keeps them from returning. The product has proved itself with thousands of dogs in our store over a period of 15 years.
The drugs they use are ineffective because they do not address the Gut Microbiota, which is where allergies actually originate. 80% of research papers on the Gut Microbiota have been produced in just the last 6 years which explains why they are not up to date on the real source of allergies.
Ours is the only dog food that eliminates allergy symptoms, and has been doing it for fifteen years. There is no competition. The industry, at this point, still does not believe there actually is a solution for allergies, much less one that is dietary and nutritional. We had a solution for the 20 million dogs suffering with allergies that actually works. This is a product that solves a huge problem and you can market it with literally no competition. It may seem too good to be true but we assure it is quite real. We have a video on YouTube for more detailed info on allergies and the Gut Microbiota.
Products & Services Overview
Our dog food solves the allergy problems that an estimated 20 to 30 million dogs suffer from, which no other dog food we know of does. We had a dog food store for 15 years in conjunction with manufacturing Brothers dog food, and over the years we observed first hand the effect our dog food had, compared to the top foods we carried, on thousands of dogs. Only Brothers was able to resolve the allergy related symptoms, and with the proper marketing budget and plan, it has the potential to generate an enormous financial return.
Fifteen years ago our family owned a dog food store and were surprised at the poor performance of even the best food we carried in the store. We located an Animal Nutritionist with 35 years experience designing dog food, and a Ph. D in Gut Biology (think Gut Microbiota), and asked him to design the absolute healthiest kibble dog food possible.
Everyone was excited by how quickly the health and vitality of their dog improved on our food, but the best was yet to come. A few weeks, to a few months, after starting our products, the allergy symptoms that many of the dogs were suffering from, and being treated for, simply went away. They were able to stop the medications their dogs were on and the allergy symptoms did not return as long as they continued feeding our dog food. This was a totally unexpected side-effect and within a year we were selling more of our dog food than all the rest of the food in our store combined, just from customers sharing with other customers what it did for their dog.
It brings to mind a similar situation when a Phifer drug, designed to control blood pressure, had the side-effect side of curing ED in men. Pfizer quickly renamed the drug Viagra, marketed it for its newly discovered ability, and generated over a billion dollars in sales the first year alone.
Veterinarians, nutritionists, and the dog food industry are still unaware there is a dietary solution for allergies. Veterinarians are taught that allergies are caused primarily by insects and the environment (called atopic allergies) with a very small percentage caused by certain foods. They are led to believe that treating the symptoms with drugs is the only alternative available to them, even though the drugs only work for limited periods, if at all, are expensive, and have negative side effects.
We can thank the exceptional life’s work of a gifted Animal Nutritionist and scientist with a Ph. D in Gut Biology who was ahead of his time in recognizing the importance of the gut microbiota and created a dog food so well balanced and designed, that it turned out to resolve dog allergies at their source.
Our food does what no other dog food, or drug for that matter, has accomplished where allergies are concerned and yet very few are aware. This creates a very lucrative opportunity for whomever has the foresight and financial ability to acquire our company, our food formulas, and market them to the 20 to 25 million dogs with allergy symptoms, a very lucrative market they will have all to themselves.
We made a video explaining the connection of allergy symptoms to the gut microbiota last year that is available on YouTube and we will be happy to go into more detail for anyone that is interested.
We understand this sounds too good to be true but we can assure it is real, and it's not a theory, it has a successful 15 year history.
Our company is fortunate to have unique possession of nine formulas that resolve allergies, all of which will be included in the sale. We are willing to contribute what we can to the endeavor if we can be of value. We would seriously like to see our formulas provide relief from allergies for as many dogs as possible over the coming years, and make the company that facilitates that vision very wealthy in the process.
Assets Overview
Intangible assets:
We have 9 unique formulas that have been preventing and eliminating allergy symptoms in dogs for over 15 years.
This dog food resolves dog allergies and prevents them from developing, which is something the industry does not have in any other food or medicine. The fact that veterinarians have no solution other than a constant application of corticosteroids, antihistamines, or drugs like Apoquel that do not work effectively, or for very long, and have negative side effects is proof that the industry is without a solution or even an accurate understanding of how allergies develop and what causes them. This food is a solution that has proven itself over 90 % effective for 15 years, it is a proven reality, not a theory. We know it is hard to believe that they do not have a solution or even an accurate understanding of the source of these problems, but that is the shocking reality of medicine in this country today and its emphasis on drugs instead of proper nutrition. One can watch our YouTube video attached to know more than almost everyone in the industry when it comes to the vast majority of allergies in dogs and what really causes therm. The ultimate reality is this food does what all the drugs they are using do not.
Facilities Overview
We have a 4,850-square-foot warehouse with an office in a clean, well-maintained industrial area just north and east of Kansas City. The three-year lease started July 31 this year and is USD 2,586/MO. See the attached screenshot from Google Earth.
Capitalization Overview
We have a USD 195,000 credit line with the bank and have recently borrowed USD 70,600 over 36 months.
The promoter's wife and the promoter own 33.5% each of the company and the promoter's wife's two sons who work in the company have 16.5% each.
