FRPT vs ERO Comparison

Freshpet produces and sells premium fresh pet food through its company-owned refrigerators placed in grocery, mass and club, pet specialty, and natural stores. Freshpet primarily targets dogs (likely representing well north of 90% of sales), with cats and treats nascent contributors. Geographically, the company's home US market, where all its food is produced, accounts for nearly all of sales, with exports to Canada, the United Kingdom, and other European countries being very small contributors.
