PET Food Processing - March 2020 - 19

DOGSTAR® KITCHEN
FOOD SAFETY FEATURES:
show up unannounced. The company has also successfully passed US Food and Drug Administration
(FDA) inspections. Being inspection-ready every day
is the company's philosophy. "We set a mission before
we hired the first employee of being tour ready at all
times." Arnold says. "We just expect the kitchen to be
clean and ready all the time. People take a lot of pride
in their kitchen, a lot of pride in their work area and
they want to keep it neat. It makes it safer, better for
food safety and it also looks nice."

Details deliver safety
The focus on hiring quality employees, investing in their
training and trusting them to meet stringent safety standards has clearly been a successful formula for the company, which needed to expand DogStar within the first
year to meet demand.
To produce a high volume of pet food and treats safely, Champion implemented a long list of design parameters and safety protocols, some of which are not typically
seen in companion animal manufacturing facilities.
