BOZEMAN, Mont. – West Paw, the Certified B Corporation known for designing products for the love of pets, people and the planet, is partnering with Packer Mellem Sales to help bring its safe, sustainable toys and healthy treats to more dogs through the independent pet retailer market.
“We’re thrilled about our partnership with Packer Mellem Sales because its fantastic team shares our passion for helping independent pet retailers succeed,” said Spencer Williams, CEO of West Paw. “Our American-made toys and treats will benefit from Packer Mellem representatives offering training and timely reorders to retailers to ensure our best-selling products remain in stock.
