Background: ownership, sourcing and positioning
Fancy Feast and Proudi sit at opposite ends of the ownership spectrum in the Australian cat food market. Fancy Feast wins shoppers on variety and palatability rather than nutritional reinvention, using meat by-products and thickeners common to mainstream wet food. Proudi uses around 97% meat, organs and ground bone with a small premix that avoids menadione, and no grains, legumes or starches across both formats. The two brands differ in several ways beyond the one point highlighted here.
Fancy Feast is made in Pluakdaeng, Rayong, Thailand. It was created by Carnation in 1982 as the first 'gourmet' cat food, predating Nestlé's acquisition by three years.
Proudi is made on the Sunshine Coast, QLD, as prey-model raw frozen patties and shelf-stable air-dried products, across four frozen and three air-dried cat recipes. It is an independent Queensland prey-model raw brand making both frozen patties and air-dried products from Australian human-grade meat.
