Trade & Shopper Marketeer Italy Italy, Milan

About Us
Do you believe in the importance of doing what's right? We launched Edgard & Cooper nine years ago because we were tired of ultra-processed pet food with incomprehensible ingredient lists. We wanted to make a difference, so we created our own natural, nutritious recipes! To us, dogs and cats are family members, and they deserve real, healthy, delicious, high-quality food. That's why Edgard & Cooper is the natural and nutritious choice that helps them live their lives to the fullest.
We carefully select simple, wholesome ingredients like fresh meat and fish, nutritious offals, and fruits and vegetables—ensuring that dogs and cats get all the essential nutrients they need. Additionally, our strong commitment to sustainability has made us one of the few pet food companies in the world with a B Corp certification. But we don't stop there: through the Edgard & Cooper Foundation, we support non-profit organizations around the world dedicated to improving the lives of dogs and cats in need.
Working at Edgard & Cooper means joining an international team where every voice matters. We encourage curiosity and learning, and we value initiative. If you're looking to join a growing team determined to make a positive impact on the lives of pets and the planet, you're in the right place!
