Our Story

Calibra is a pet food brand built on veterinary expertise, trusted nutrition and a shared passion for helping pets live healthier lives; a story that began in the Czech Republic in the 1990s.

Dr. Jaromír Koudela, a progressive veterinarian and manager, succeeded in building Noviko, a veterinary distribution company. This company was the result of enthusiasm and the shared work of seven friends, five of whom were former fellow students at the University of Veterinary and Pharmaceutical Sciences Brno in the Czech Republic.

Dr Koudela then formed Calibra over 20 years ago with the desire to create pet food that addressed a variety of needs and conditions.

Nutrition is a foundation of good health, and at Calibra we are passionate about delivering a brand for your furry friends that is trusted, researched and loved.

Pets mean everything to Calibra

We consider pets to be friends, family members, buddies and our soulmates. Therefore, the health of your dogs and cats comes first. 

Your pets' health is always at the centre of what we do. We develop top-quality products with high nutritional values, promote animal health, and contribute to long-lasting and happy relationships between pets and their owners. At Calibra, we spend a lot of time with pets – not only through our work – but also in our everyday lives. They are our greatest motivation and the reason we are committed to creating products that support their health, happiness, and lifelong bond with their owners.

The Calibra Brand

Our pet food is developed by vets and nutritionists who understand the wide range of health conditions cats and dogs can experience, and how tailored nutrition can support their individual needs. From digestive sensitivities and diabetes to joint mobility, weight management, renal support and more, our recipes are created with real health needs in mind.

Our team is comprised of vets with in-practice experience, animal health-specific nutritionists and our own laboratory diagnostics team.

Having such extensive veterinary expertise at our core allows us to develop well-balanced and affordable formulas to delight both pets and their owners.

We are continually striving to develop new, top-quality products for pets, now also worldwide.
