We are thrilled to announce that Rebel Raw has been recognized as one of the winners of the 2025 Bulldog 100, an esteemed honor awarded by the University of Georgia (UGA) Alumni Association to the fastest-growing businesses owned or led by UGA alumni. This recognition is a testament to our unwavering commitment to providing pets with real, fresh, and high-quality nutrition while making a lasting impact in the pet food industry.
Our Journey: From Home Kitchen to Bulldog 100
Rebel Raw started in 2014 out of our home kitchen, driven by a simple yet powerful mission: to make fresh, species-appropriate nutrition accessible to pet parents so that more cats and dogs can live long, healthy lives. What began as a small, family-owned business quickly grew thanks to the dedication of our team and the incredible support of our customers. Our co-founder, Tina, a graduate of the Terry College of Business at UGA, has been instrumental in shaping Rebel Raw into what it is today. Through hard work, passion, and a commitment to quality, we’ve expanded our operations and are now recognized as one of the fastest-growing businesses led by UGA alumni. This achievement is a reflection of our grassroots beginnings and unwavering dedication to pet health.
