Now more than ever, retailers of all sizes require NASC membership and the NASC Quality Seal as a condition for stocking animal health and nutritional supplements and treats for dogs, cats, and horses.
To learn why, we invite you to join NASC as a Retailer Member—at no cost—to access training and resources designed to strengthen your understanding of labeling requirements, claims boundaries, and the standards that make the NASC Quality Program the industry’s gold standard.
Today’s informed pet parents want to know exactly what goes into the products they give their pets, where those products come from, and how they are made. This is especially true for ingestible products such as animal health and nutritional supplements and treats. They expect to purchase from retailers that stand behind the quality of the products on their shelves.
While price will always influence purchasing decisions, quality remains a powerful competitive advantage. Retailers can build credibility and long-term customer loyalty by prioritizing shelf space for products manufactured to independently audited quality standards, certified for current good manufacturing practices (cGMPs), and tested to verify label claims.
When evaluating supplements and treats, retailers can confidently select products bearing the NASC Quality Seal. This respected mark signifies that a member company has successfully passed an independent quality audit and maintains ongoing compliance with rigorous NASC standards.
