Our story

Why LPF?

We're North Canterbury farmers who got sick of seeing “premium” pet food packed with junk. So we made our own.

About LPF

We’re Local — a no-nonsense pet food brand straight from the paddocks of North Canterbury. Our duck and turkey is raised by real Kiwi farmers. No additives, no fillers, no weird bits you can’t pronounce — just honest, high-quality meat your dog will love.

We’re North Canterbury farmers who believe your pets deserve real food — the kind we’d be proud to feed our own dogs. We raise our own duck and turkey, can it locally, and keep it simple: no nasties, no shortcuts, just good honest meat.

NZ-Grown Meat

NZ-Grown Meat

Our birds are raised with care, processed locally, and canned fresh. It’s simple, clean, and full of everything your pet needs — and nothing they don’t.

When you feed LPF, you’re backing local farmers, local jobs, and real food made the right way. No fluff, no shortcuts. Just good meat, from our farms to your dog’s bowl.

Quality control

Family Business & Quality Control

We started LPF because we were sick of seeing “premium” pet food packed with junk or sent from half-way across the world. As farmers, we know what good meat looks like — and it shouldn’t need a chemistry degree to read the label.

Our vision: More pets eating better, more people backing small NZ producers, and less processed rubbish on the shelves.

Our mission: To grow and produce top-quality pet food using ethical farming, local processing, and zero compromise on ingredients — feeding pets the way nature intended.

What we don't use

No Grain. No Nasties. AAFCO Compliant.

We make food we'd be happy to feed our own dogs — simple as that.

🚫

No wheat, no corn, no soy. Dogs are carnivores and our recipes reflect that.

🧪

No Artificial Nasties

No artificial preservatives, flavours or colours. Just real ingredients you can read on the label.

AAFCO Compliant

Local Pet Food is AAFCO compliant — meeting the nutritional standards that matter for your dog's health.

How We Make It

Step 1: Sourcing

Our duck and turkey are raised by real Kiwi farmers right here in North Canterbury. We know the farms, we know the birds — that’s how we can stand behind every can.

Step 2: Preparation

The meat is processed locally — no long supply chains, no mystery ingredients added along the way. What goes in is what you see on the label.

Step 3: Canning & Quality Check

We can it fresh — no artificial preservatives needed. Simple, clean, and full of everything your dog needs.

Step 4: Packed & Shipped to You

Every order is packed and shipped across New Zealand. NZ delivery only — because we're proudly local.
