The Charity Programme

ESSENTIAL FOODS is about much more than profit - although we take great pride in running a successful business. ESSENTIAL FOODS is our founder's vision of a company that can and will make a difference. For dogs and other living beings and their habitat.

In other words we are a purpose driven company, working every day to change the world to being a better place for animals and the nature. 

The heart of our charitable activity lies within the ESSENTIAL Charity Program. This expands every year. Our publicly annonced goal is £100.000 yearly (1.000.000DKK).
