Nutro Max cat food is manufactured by Nutro Products. Nutro Products was first founded in 1926, when a British businessman purchased a dog food company and renamed it “Nutro Products”. In 1976, the company was purchased and developed an expanded market. In 2007, Mars, Incorporated purchased Nutro Products. Nutro Products manufactures their pet food out of Industry, California. Nutro engages in non-traditional advertising, and does not freely hand out coupons as advertising (believing it would compromise their non-aggressive marketing standards).

Many Nutro products are currently on the FDA's list of recalled pet foods. Both dog and cat food are affected, though this recall only affects several canned and pouch formulas. Currently, none of Nutro's dry cat food formulas are involved in any recalls.

Nutro Max Dry Cat Food Final Thoughts

Though many of Nutro's products are on the FDA recall list, none of the dry cat food formulas are affected. Some consumers report food allergies when feeding their cat some of Nutro's cat food formulas. This could perhaps be caused by a high concentration of corn and wheat in these dry cat food formulas, which many cats develop allergies to.
