WASHINGTON, Oct. 2, 2019 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- RestoraPet Founder and CEO Brian Larsen is living proof that having a big heart, an ambitious dream, and the unbending intent to put both into action can create dramatic change in the lives of people—and their pets. Today, after many years of hard work, he is celebrating the explosive growth of his six-year-old company, the opening of a new facility in Gaithersburg, MD, and an expanding advisory board. Among RestoraPet's new advisors, announced today, are Morton Meyerson, the philanthropist, former CEO of Perot Systems, and former CTO of General Motors; and Jack Martin, the former Global Executive Chairman and CEO of Hill+Knowlton Strategies. Also joining the advisory board is Ron Kirk, the former U.S. Trade Representative under the Obama Administration, former mayor of Dallas, and former PetSmart, Inc. board member.
"When I heard about this proprietary formula RestoraPet is offering and what Vitalitrol® can do for pets at a cellular level, I knew I had to be a part of this groundbreaking venture," Meyerson said. "What Brian has already accomplished at such a young age is truly unbelievable, and I am thrilled to be able to help him capitalize on this success and maximize his momentous discovery."
After suffering alongside his aging dog, Bandit, and wishing desperately that there were something on the market to ease his discomfort, Larsen dedicated the rest of his teenage and young adult life to researching a solution that would ensure no dog needlessly suffer again. For a decade, Larsen worked tirelessly, in his garage, to create a proprietary formula that would rejuvenate pets at the cellular level.
His passion, drive, and hard work paid off: The 33-year-old scientist and entrepreneur expects to finish the final quarter of the company's fifth year in business with more than $1 million in sales, and an anticipated sales volume of over a half million bottles in 2020.
This explosive growth also led RestoraPet to relocate the company headquarters after just half a year in an office just outside Washington, D.C. to a much larger, 6,000-square-foot facility in Gaithersburg, MD, which opened today. This is the third location the company has required to sustain its growth since the first bottle of RestoraPet was sold in 2014.
"The fact that Brian has come so far already is a testament to the breakthrough product he developed," Martin said. "I am excited to play a role in shaping the future of this company and cannot wait to see what the next 5, 10, 15 and 20 years have in store for the future of giving pets the quality of life they deserve."
"What a dream team this company is already attracting and assembling—both in-house and on the board of advisors," Kirk said. "RestoraPet is already the heartwarming story of a young entrepreneur who believed he could and did, and we're just getting started."

First introduced in 2014, RestoraPet® products are now used by tens of thousands of pets in nearly 100 countries worldwide.
CEO Brian Larsen founded RestoraPet after dedicating his life to helping animals achieve and maintain wellness. Larsen's Siberian Husky, Bandit, suffered from arthritis and cancer before passing away, and nothing on the market at the time could alleviate his best friend's pain. Larsen, who was just a teenager at the time, focused on pet wellness from that point forward. He worked in a pharmacy and earned three science degrees, including a Bachelor of Science from the University of Maryland. Then he worked at a pharmaceutical company, where he spent nights and weekends testing all kinds of formulas before developing a laboratory in his home where he successfully created RestoraPet. He is now completing his MBA at the University of Virginia's Darden School of Business, as he continues to grow RestoraPet into the best pet supplement on the market.
