Burt's Bees is the #1 dermatologist recommended natural skincare brand, offering clean and consciously-crafted products to work with the skin and uplift the spirit. We believe that nature holds the key to healthy skin, so we create skin care formulas that are packed with powerful, nutrient-rich ingredients for skin that’s nourished, balanced and beautiful.
Our formulas reflect evidence-based natural skin care learnings, and are crafted to work with skin’s natural pace of renewal by nourishing emerging cells and supporting the hydro-lipid barrier. Our nutrient-rich ingredients deliver vitamins, minerals, antioxidants, essential fatty acids, and other phytonutrients to address specific skin care concerns. Formulas are over 95% Natural Origin, with no animal testing, responsible sourcing, and recyclable packaging.
As a company, Burt’s Bees operates with a triple bottom line - people, profit, planet - because you simply can’t have one without the other two. We actively nurture our employees, our customers, our families, ourselves and our environment. By practicing what we preach, we hope to set an example for others to follow, and help people connect with the wisdom, power and beauty of nature in their daily lives.
If there’s a road less traveled, we’ll take it. And if there’s no road yet, we’ll build one. That’s The Merrick Way. We lead to win in Natural and Organic Pet Care, we innovate together as one, agile team and we commit to improving the lives of those we love most . . . our Pets.
Pets have always been a part of our family. Garth Merrick founded Merrick Pet Care in his family’s kitchen in Hereford, Texas, with the goal of making the most wholesome and nutritious recipes for our four-legged family members. This love for pets is what inspires our team to build on this legacy, and continue to craft the highest-quality and safest food and treats for dogs and cats.
We are passionate about being the best. We go to great lengths to craft the best food possible — food that our pets deserve. That’s why we’ve expanded our family of brands to include Castor & Pollux, Zuke’s and Whole Earth Farms alongside our signature Merrick brand in our premium product portfolio.
We never sacrifice quality. And, never will. We believe that recipes taste better than formulas and that's why we continue to handcraft our recipes with love in our Texas kitchen. It might take us longer to hand-stuff ingredients in some of our Merrick wet recipes, and to source USDA Organic Certified ingredients for our Castor & Pollux ORGANIX line, but that’s the Merrick Way.
We are one of the fastest growing businesses in pet specialty, and we’re thankful for the unique position we have in the category. We’re committed to staying true to our homegrown Texas roots, and humble about what we’ve accomplished. We like to think of ourselves as the craft brewery of the industry – we bring an entrepreneurial spirit and level of creativity that is rather unique to the pet food space. We know it’s the people – and their pets – behind our food that has always made us stand out; that’s why we’re focused on building talented teams that are hungry for the opportunity to improve the lives of pets, pet parents and customers.
