Royal Canin

Royal Canin was founded in 1968 by a vet with a vision, Jean Cathary, to improve the health of cats and dogs through nutrition. That mission still drives everything we do.

Health is our obsession

We focus our attention on the unique needs of cats and dogs. That obsession with detail is what makes it possible for us to deliver precise, effective nutrition, and help them become their magnificent best.

Pursuit of knowledge

Our deep understanding of the needs of cats and dogs is what makes it possible for us to make the world's most precise pet health nutrition. We never stop learning and never take anything for granted. That’s why we collaborate with leading scientific, veterinary and behavioural experts, and maintain an ongoing dialogue with cat and dog owners worldwide.

An obsession for pet health

We put our heart and soul into everything we do, and act with a genuine passion to make a better world for pets and pet owners worldwide.

Pets first

We always put the needs of pets first. That gives us a clear focus that steers our research, underpins the nutritional quality of all our products, and helps cats and dogs live longer, healthier lives.

Precision in everything

Our deep knowledge and experience has given us a precise understanding of the needs of pets, and the nutrients required to keep them at their magnificent best. This precision ensures the high performance of every aspect of our products - from the shape, texture, palatability and digestibility, to the safety and traceability.

Respect their nature

We respect cats and dogs for the incredible animals they are. This respect is born from a deep knowledge of their true nature and their unique functional needs. It informs every decision we make about our products and services, while shaping the way we behave as a business.
