Petworking at Global Pet Expo 2025: Nulo's Packaging Refresh
Description
In this Petworking interview short, host Peter Kenseth catches up with Dr. Greg Aldrich of Nulo Pet Food at Global Pet Expo 2025 to see their innovative packaging redesign firsthand.Following their pre-show conversation about the challenges of retail merchandising, this was an exciting chance examine Nulo's comprehensive packaging refresh for their Freestyle line - a project that touched 70-80 different SKUs. Dr. Aldrich walked us through their smart design improvements including flat-bottom construction, interrupted gussets for better shelf stability, and the impressive "apex closure" Velcro seal that makes resealing pet food bags significantly easier.We also got a look at Nulo's newest products: a small breed beef and sweet potato recipe and their new adult lamb formula. This brief segment perfectly illustrates how packaging innovation can enhance consumer experience in meaningful ways beyond the product itself.As Dr. Aldrich notes, pet food manufacturers have just 5-6 seconds to communicate their value proposition to shoppers amid the visual noise of retail environments. Watch to see how Nulo is meeting this challenge!
