- Their salmon is caught in a sustainable way, guaranteeing healthy oceans and safeguarding seafood supplies for the future.
- The facility that bottles their salmon oil is also MSC certified, for a full circle of sustainability.
- Their salmon is carefully handled and separated from non-certified fish with clear labeling in order for it to be traced to a certified sustainable fishery.

"Sustainably marketed products have really been driving growth," Randi Kronthal-Sacco, senior scholar with the NYU Stern Center for Sustainable Business, in a webinar hosted by IRI. "They haven't been affected by COVID, in fact they've actually grown and they should continue to increase…This shows that businesses can do well and do good."
The NYU researchers collaborated with market research firm IRi to create the Sustainable Market Share Index and found that brands who prioritize sustainability have higher customer loyalty. Vital Pet Life is living proof with their passionate customer community, who proudly share their pets' transformations after using their Wild Alaskan Salmon Oil.
"Nikki is a rescue. Her skin was in horrible shape…. I'm amazed at how much this has already healed her skin. Her fur is now pleasant to touch. Before it was so rough and coarse, now it's so soft…….she isn't scratching herself ...anymore. She hasn't had to take any allergy meds or steroids at all which is amazing. I'm so grateful I found this product. I highly recommend it for every dog." Jennifer H.
This announcement of their salmon oil's certification is an acknowledgment of Vital Pet Life's continued commitment to sustainable practices and higher standards in the pet wellness industry.
