How about Solid Gold Cat Food brand introduction

Founded in 1974, Solid gold is a member of the North American Organic Trade Association and was selected as the California Exporter of the Year by the U.S. Chamber of Commerce Small Business Federation. After more than 40 years of development, Surico now has a comprehensive product line, covering dry food, canned food, snacks and nutritional products for cats and dogs. In 2014, its dog food products entered the recommended list of WDJ magazine, and the strength of the formula is well recognized, the nutritional value of cat food is generally higher than that of dog food, and the quality of Suligao's cat food is decent, and it is a foreign mid-range cat food brand favored by Chinese consumers.
 
Surico's cat food is sourced from all over the globe, including cod from Alaska, duck from France, and venison from Australia, but refuses to buy any ingredients from China. The brand claims that all dried cat food products are made in the United States, and that all sourcing and manufacturing processes are strictly supervised, but in fact the production process is done in the form of a contract factory, and the foundry and GO are the same - Elmira Pets Product in Canada. However, outsourcing production to foundries is a normal operation in the industry, and Ermera is reliable, and the quality of Suligao has maintained a stable level over the years, and there are fewer actual accidents, so you can rest assured when purchasing.
 
The real problem with Sulico is that its formula has a low meat content and too high carbs. The 10 dry foods in the whole series are grain-free, and indeed do not contain any grains, but the carbohydrate content is not low, usually in the form of potatoes, peas, lentils, tapioca flour, etc. The most critical protein content, crude protein is more than 30%, and there are also cases where pea protein is used, and the proportion of animal protein content is not high.
 
Taking the best-selling chicken and egg gold cat food as an example, potatoes and peas are the top ingredients in the recipe list, and the content is not low, in addition, the fat is rapeseed oil, which is difficult for cats to digest and absorb, forming a large waste. The most important animal protein mainly comes from chicken meal and chicken, which are not the main ones, so there are not many substances that actually provide energy for cats. The reference price of the 5.4kg pack of this cat food is 419 yuan, which is about 38.8 yuan per catty, and the overall cost performance is not high, especially at this price, it is not advantageous.
 
Sureco does not have an online flagship store in China, and the offline general agent is Global Easy Supply (Hong Kong) Co., Ltd., so users should look for the authorization letter when purchasing in an online authorized store to avoid being deceived.
