Bolt, the dog whose everyday feeding needs inspired the journey that later became Shvaan Foods.

Where Shvaan began

Bolt inspired the first bowl.

Shvaan began because Kedar wanted a better everyday meal for Bolt, his first dog and a much-loved member of the family. Understanding what should go into Bolt’s bowl led Kedar to study dog nutrition, develop recipes and observe how food affected appetite, digestion, energy and the daily feeding experience.

The work developed through practical feeding experience, formulation learning, customer feedback and hands-on food manufacturing. Early meals were prepared for local delivery in frozen form. Shvaan later moved to retort-packed meals that could remain shelf-stable while unopened.

The goal was not to make feeding more complicated. It was to make fresh feeding more practical for Indian homes.

What Shvaan makes today

Fresh wet dog food made in India.

Seven recipes, real ingredients and shelf-stable retort packaging designed to make fresh feeding more practical.

A complete product system, not one isolated ingredient.

Shvaan makes fresh wet dog food using real meat, eggs, rice, fruits, vegetables and selected Ayurvedic herbs and spices.

The meals are packed primarily in 200 g retort pouches and contain no artificial colours, flavours or preservatives.

Current recipes: Classic Chicken, Apple Chicken, Mango Chicken, Lamb & Apple, Turkey & Pumpkin, Duck & Beets, and Quail & Pumpkin.

01

Real ingredients

Meat, eggs, rice, fruits, vegetables and selected herbs and spices form the recipe foundation.

02

Seven distinct recipes

Chicken-led meals and selected alternative-protein recipes provide different taste and ingredient options.

03

Retort-packed

Sealed pouches are heat-processed after packing, allowing unopened food to remain shelf-stable.

04

Practical for Indian homes

No refrigeration is required before opening. The pouch can be opened, poured and served.

Founder and formulation responsibility

NAVC Certified Pet Nutrition Coach

NAVC Certified Pet Nutrition Coach badge

Kedar formulates Shvaan’s recipes and reviews the company’s educational nutrition content. His work combines pet-nutrition education with practical feeding experience, ingredient selection, recipe development and hands-on knowledge of wet dog-food manufacturing.

Before founding Shvaan, Kedar spent more than two decades in engineering, technology consulting and business leadership. That background continues to influence Shvaan’s focus on formulation discipline, production processes, continuous learning and transparent decision-making.

Food can support everyday wellbeing, but Shvaan does not present food as a miracle cure or a replacement for veterinary diagnosis and treatment.

Shvaan’s feeding philosophy

Better health starts with a better bowl.

01

Food before fixes

Build the daily nutritional foundation before reaching for more products or after-fixes.

02

Start small

One fresh meal can be a practical first step. The entire feeding routine does not need to change overnight.

03

Observe before deciding

Appetite, digestion, energy, stool quality and mealtime behaviour provide useful feedback.

04

No miracle claims

No single food or ingredient should be presented as a cure for every health problem.

05

Respect veterinary care

Nutrition supports daily wellbeing but does not replace veterinary diagnosis or treatment.

06

Educate before selling

Pet parents deserve clear information that helps them make better-informed feeding decisions.

How Shvaan earns trust

Trust should be supported by visible evidence.

What Shvaan says should be inspectable.

Product information, processing explanations, nutrition guidance and founder accountability should be visible and understandable before a pet parent decides to buy.

Ingredient transparency

Shvaan product information identifies the ingredients and recipe foundations used in each meal.
