Dublin, Ireland--(Newsfile Corp. - January 9, 2023) - Tonisity International Limited ("Tonisity"), an animal health science and nutrition company based in Ireland, is pleased to announce that, following its news release dated September 29, 2022, the General Administration of Customs in the People's Republic of China ("GACC") has approved the importation of Tonisity's DoggyRade, KittyRade, YummyRade and DoggyRade Pro companion animal products. The Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Affairs in China approved the registration of DoggyRade, KittyRade and DoggyRade Pro in 2021, which enabled Tonisity to legally sell these products into the Chinese market. Having now obtained approval to import DoggyRade, KittyRade, YummyRade and DoggyRade Pro into China, Tonisity is now positioned to immediately accelerate sales of these products into one of the largest pet markets in the world. Tonisity intends to begin selling these products into the Chinese market in Q1 of 2023. China is one of the largest markets in the world for companion animal products, with over 100 million pet dogs and cats in urban China alone. The market for pet food supplies, medicines and services in China was worth nearly US$26.5 billion in 2020 and the market experienced a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of over 30% between 2010 and 2020. [1] The CAGR for the companion animal sector in China is expected to continue to be high given a number of durable trends, including rising disposable incomes, more people living alone and buying pets, and younger pet owners willing to spend more money on their pets. About Tonisity's Companion Animal Products Tonisity produces the world's first isotonic, prebiotic drink products that are very palatable for dogs and cats. The first three products are marketed as over-the-counter/retail/direct-to-consumer products. They are: DoggyRade - a delicious, prebiotic isotonic (with electrolytes), low-calorie drink that provides digestive support and general health benefits to dogs. The unique formula encourages fast hydration and recovery after exercise and exertion. KittyRade - a very palatable prebiotic, isotonic drink for cats that encourages them to drink more, which is important given that approximately one-third of cats suffer from health issues related to not drinking enough water. It also includes essential amino acids and electrolytes. YummyRade - a very tasty, low fat and low-calorie sauce to go over any pet food, but particularly those which are bland and dry. It is ideal for cats and dogs on specific diets. It also includes essential amino acids and prebiotics. The fourth product is: DoggyRade Pro - a non-prescription isotonic rehydration drink to treat dogs who are unwell and have digestive health issues. This product is normally sold through veterinarians. The products noted above are currently marketed in 25 languages, from Arabic to Swedish. Within the first 12 months of launch in January 2021, the products have won three industry awards in the United Kingdom and the United States. DoggyRade, KittyRade, YummyRade and Tonisity's other companion animal products are also available in a number of pet chains and other retail stores in Europe, as well as the US-based e-commerce site, www.chewy.com and www.amazon.com . Arie Halpern, CEO of Tonisity, comments: "Having received approval to import our patented pet products from the government of one of the largest companion animal markets in the world, Tonisity is poised to accelerate sales in this growing sector, as well as the swine sector. These novel products have proven technology that improves the health and well-being of cats and dogs. We are pleased to have achieved this important milestone and will continue to work tirelessly with our joint venture partners to increase our sales in China, while working to obtain regulatory permits for the rest of our products. Tonisity is making further progress in becoming a leading global animal health and science company." Further updates will be provided in the near future.
