As protein forward eating continues to gain momentum in the human wellness space, pet parents are increasingly seeking similar benefits for their dogs, prioritizing diets that support lean muscle, sustained energy, digestion, and overall vitality. As a leader in human grade pet food, The Honest Kitchen is bringing these evolving nutrition standards to the pet aisle with recipes that go beyond traditional kibble.

We’re thrilled to share some exciting news: our founder, Lucy Postins, has been recognized on Inc.’s 2026 Female Founders 500 list, honoring the most dynamic women business leaders in the United States. The honor recognizes founders whose bold ideas, resilience, and execution are shaping the future of their industries.

Two decades later, The Honest Kitchen is the leading human-grade pet food in North America, with a 50/50 revenue split between e-commerce and brickand-mortar retail. Our CEO Will Lisman, who stepped in three years ago after a career spanning Hershey, startup leadership, and brand building, is now scaling the mission while positioning the company against headwinds in affordability, pet adoption, and a category he believes is a decade behind human food in its health-and-wellness evolution.

The Honest Kitchen, pioneer of human grade pet food, is teaming up with Moon Cheese, the cult-favorite crunchy cheese snack brand, to launch a craveable new collection of cheesy dog treats. Designed to mirror the flavors and formats pet parents already love, the co-branded lineup brings the joy of human snacking moments to dogs – just in time for National Cheese Lover’s Day.
