Food safety and nutritional quality are our top priority. We have rigorous product development and testing processes to ensure Jinx is premium grade producing premium dog food . We are committed to continually investing in new technology and ongoing research to drive improvement. Here’s how we ensure our food is safe: We ensure our food is safe by doing the following: (1) Formulation: Jinx worked with the best animal scientists, formulators, nutritionists, veterinarians, regulatory specialists, and manufacturing partners to meticulously craft a series of dog food products best suited for the modern dog. (2) Ingredients: Along with our manufacturing partners, Jinx follows strict selection criteria to identify accredited suppliers that can help us maintain our best-in-class quality and safety standards. We have a comprehensive audit process to determine the nutritional value, production quality, traceability, and sustainability. (3) Manufacturing: We vetted dozens of factories across the United States and landed on Global Food Safety Initiative (GFSI) certified manufacturing partners that upheld the same standards and values as we do. We’ve teamed up with each of our manufacturing partners to establish controls and processes for everything, including facility maintenance, sanitation and pest control, employee training, in-house sampling and lab analysis, manufacturing, packaging, warehousing, and distribution. (4) Product Release: Before any new product is released into the wild, it goes through a quality assurance control program to ensure that the diet meets the guaranteed analysis as stated on our labels. Additionally, safety tests are conducted both internally and through an independent, third-party lab for pathogens (e.g., Salmonella). All products are held and do not leave the facility until they are cleared by the lab results. (5) Packaging & Warehousing: Our finished product is packaged in premium polyethylene Terephthalate (PET) bags with an inside lining that is designed to keep food fresh. Our finished products are warehoused in a facility with food-grade sanitation and product controls until they are delivered to customers. (6) Traceability: Each product has unique coding that allows us to identify and trace it from formulation, ingredient supplier, manufacturing to distribution.
