And joining us in 2007 as a new sponsor is WHOLE FOODS!

Whole Foods believe in a virtuous circle entwining the food chain, human beings and Mother Earth: each is reliant upon the others through a beautiful and delicate symbiosis.

Whole Foods obtains products locally and from all over the world, often from small, uniquely dedicated food artisans. They strive to offer the highest quality, least processed, most flavorful and naturally preserved foods. Why? Because food in its purest state — unadulterated by artificial additives, sweeteners, colorings and preservatives — is the best tasting and most nutritious food available. Whole Foods also believe companies, like individuals, must assume their share of responsibility as tenants of Planet Earth.

The Natural Pet Expo team offers infinite gratitude & thanks our sponsors for all their generous support of our cause!
