Why we’re stepping up our sustainability commitment

At Edgard & Cooper, we are passionate about the great outdoors. We started our company because we love our dogs, Edgard & Cooper, and were concerned for their wellbeing. We set ourselves a mission: to make people, pets and our planet Feel Good.

But soon, we realised that to truly honour our Feel Good mission, we needed to look beyond daily nutrition. That meant taking the time to fully understand our pets’ needs to ensure they thrive. What we came to discover was something that we intuitively knew all along. Being outside in nature is crucial to our pets’ health and happiness.

Nature’s medicine

Whether it’s the familiar landscape of our own back garden or wild territories yet to be explored, there is something magical about stepping outside into nature – whether you have four legs or two.

For our pets, the outdoors is both a playground and a classroom, providing a place of adventure and learning. They forage, hunt, roam, run free, and engage their natural instincts. The sights, sounds and especially the smells of nature make our pets strong, fit, curious, alert and truly alive.

But nature, our greatest ally, is under threat

Natural habitats are disappearing at an alarming rate. Their loss is dramatically affecting the natural balance of our planet. Our collective human impact is big, and getting bigger. From the repercussions of climate change to the disappearance of natural habitats, from our overproduction of plastic to our intensive farming practices: we need to take better care of our world, and the creatures living on it.

Sustainability is in our DNA

When we started Edgard & Cooper, we knew there was a connection between how we ran our business and the impact we made on our beloved natural habitat. Following further research (and a lot of long walks in nature), we are stepping up our commitment to sustainability. We will do everything we can to protect the great outdoors for people, our pets and for the future of the planet.

Our ambition is to become the world’s most sustainable pet company. Our Zero Pawprint Plan is our strategy to ensure we achieve our goal and make a positive impact on the planet by 2025
