Pet parents only have bad options when it comes to pet food. Those are the traditional dry or wet food, which are highly processed and full of chemicals.

As a result, 12 million dogs and cats are diagnosed with cancer every year! Along with many other consequences like skin allergies, obesity, digestion problem, decrease in energy, lack of appetite and constant visit to the vet.

This is where PawPots comes in.

PawPots is an online subscription service offering tailor-made, fresh food for dogs & cats. It’s your Pet’s Digital Nutritionist.
We believe in changing the pet food industry to help dogs and cats live longer, healthier lives.
Our vet-approved recipes are made with human-grade ingredients. They’re freshly cooked and delivered straight to our customers door.

PawPots is now being developed to become the go-to platform when it comes to pet health. New features will be added such as:

- Vet consultations
- Electronic medical records
- Prescription recipes

With a comprehensive pet health platform, PawPots is set to become the number 1 direct-to-customer pet care brand in the region.

Global Market:

The global pet food market is projected to grow from $115 billion in 2022 to $169 billion by 2029, with a CAGR of 5.11%. That doesn't even consider the vet consultation market.
Adding the vet consultation into the equation, in 2026, there will be a global total available market of $250B (pet food and telehealth) .

Our Serviceable market:

PawPots plan is to become the number 1 direct-to-consumer brand in the MENA region, targeting specifically 4 countries in the next 4 year: Lebanon, Egypt, KSA & UAE.
With a total number of pets of 4.9 million (1.6 million dogs and 3.3 million cats), the total serviceable market in these countries is $3.3B.

PawPots market share:

We are targeting to gain between 1 and 2,5% market share, depending on the country, with a total market share of $20M by the end of 2026.

Tech – Develop state-of-the art healthtech features on top of existing PawPots platform, for a seamless integration and synergy between the PawPots Food and PawPots health offerings

Sales & Marketing – Recruit key marketing leaders; build and execute successful campaigns to expand brand reach and visibility, and become the number 1 direct-to-customer pet care brand in the region.

Team Growth – Recruit key management roles such as CTO, Vet nutritionist and operation managers, to properly execute the company strategy

Capex – Invest in smarter equipment to for more efficient and cost effective kitchen operations

THE FOLLOWING EXIT STRATEGY SCENARIOS HAVE BEEN CONSIDERED AND APPROVED BY THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS:
We anticipate a possible acquisition by a global player/competitor (such as Nestle, Mars, Butternut Box) taking place over the next 5-7 years. We are targeting to reach a much higher company valuation >$70M (3.5x Year 4 Revenue), which is very likely to yield a high exit multiple (15 or 20 times original investment) to shareholders. NOTE: we were the only Middle-East company to be selected by Nestle (Purina) in their 2021 EMENA Unleashed Accelerator, and our relationship is still on-going.

We aim to pay all shareholders an annual dividend whenever possible. This shall ultimately be at the discretion of the Board of Directors, who will approve the dividend payment based on the Company’s annual performance & growth plan.

A Share Buyback offer to all shareholders investing in this round might take place at one point. This shall ultimately be at the discretion of the Board of Directors, who will approve such initiative. The price per share at which the Buyback will be offered shall be determined based on the market value of the Company at that point.

Another exit possibility for investors in this round can be the sale of their shares to a third-party investor. This shall ultimately be at the discretion of the Board of Directors, who will decide to approve or not such transactions.
