      About Furry Green Pets

      The problem we're solving:

      Annually, one-third of global food production—1.3 billion tons—goes to waste, with nearly half of all fruits and vegetables discarded. The United States alone wastes 30-40% of its food supply, equivalent to 133 billion pounds and $161 billion annually. This alarming trend not only squanders resources but also contributes to environmental degradation, highlighting the urgent need for innovative solutions to address this pressing issue.

      Our solution:

      Furry Green Pets transforms edible food waste into nutritious pet food, addressing the global waste crisis. We collect unsold produce, meat trimmings, and pre-processed food waste to create sustainable cat and dog food. This reduces landfill waste and emissions while providing affordable, eco-friendly pet nutrition. Our solution tackles food waste and pet food sustainability simultaneously, contributing to a more circular food system.

      Our differentiator:

      Furry Green Pets uniquely tackles food waste and pet nutrition. We source from edible food waste. In a market with few sustainable options, we offer eco-friendly products for conscious pet owners. Our process outperforms conventional recycling, creating a circular economy in pet food. We donate to animal shelters, using idle resources to help those in need. This approach maximizes efficiency, reduces environmental impact, and supports animal welfare, setting us apart from competitors.

      Our biggest achievement:

      We are a revenue-generating company, validating our innovative approach to pet food production. We were awarded the prestigious Hong Kong Stock Exchange Foundation Funding, providing crucial support for our growth. Our listing in the Social Enterprise Directory of Hong Kong affirms our commitment to addressing social and environmental challenges while maintaining a sustainable business model. These achievements underscore our viability and positive market trajectory.
