Founded in 2001, Hampshire Pet Products in Joplin,
Missouri, is a co-manufacturer of baked and cold-extruded pet treats primarily for dogs. In 2014, the company - in conjunction with its customers - succeeded

Hampshire averages between 40 and 60 new products
per year.
President Julie Larson says one key to Hampshire's
