NASHVILLE, TENN. — Mediterranean-inspired pet food brand REÁL MESA™ is celebrating its first anniversary with an expansion into nearly 1,000 retail stores across the United States, including Tractor Supply, Sprouts and Meijer. This expansion is part of the brand’s plan to triple its retail presence by the end of 2025.
Originally launched in September of 2023, the brand features recipes and flavors inspired by traditional Mediterranean meals and free of artificial colors, flavors and preservatives. Its product lineup includes dog foods such as Mediterranean Chicken & Rice Entrée and Wild Caught Salmon Feast, as well treats such as Lamb Recipe Bites and Chicken Kabob small-batch, jerky treats.
“REÁL MESA brings the bright and varied ingredients of the Mediterranean table to pets through healthy and delicious recipes,” said Tierney Monaco, chief marketing officer of REÁL MESA. “Pets deserve the best in nutrition to live happy, thriving lives, and we are thrilled with the strong momentum we’ve built in our first year. Our relationships with retail partners and suppliers, combined with strong consumer interest have laid the foundation for continued growth as we head into year two.”
The brand first expanded into brick-and-mortar retail in February of this year, making its products available at Blain’s Farm & Fleet locations throughout the Midwest. Now, with this new expansion, REÁL MESA can be found on Amazon, Chewy, Walmart.com and nearly 1,000 stores nationwide.
