South Africa has a long-established reputation as an exporter of high quality meat for human consumption. Maneli Pets is committed to providing the same superior grade meat products to the global pet food market. Our products are 100% natural, gluten-free and contain no artificial preservatives.

Our proteins are pure

Our uniquely African mix of novel “wild” protein sources include ostrich, venison, crocodile, and fish. These are complemented by sustainably farmed, free range beef, pork, chicken and lamb products. Because our suppliers practice sustainable farming, our proteins are healthy and human grade.

Our producers are established farming families who share our values. Suppliers undergo a rigorous selection process and must comply with the highest food safety and quality standards. Our strict forward and backward traceability system means that finished product ingredients can be tracked back to source.
