Company Profile
The history of Ralston Purina Company was filled with twists and turns, and an occasional fork in the road. Our past is paved with vivid, often disparate images from Brain Bread to dog litter, from Maud the Mule to the Energizer® Bunny, from Purina Layena to Purina® Dog Chow® brand dog food and other pet food.
The one thread throughout this curious evolution is the ability to adapt. The Darwinian Concept of biological survival applied to business is not new. Given World Wars, the Great Depression, intense competition, and enormous shifts in business and technology, business survival over time is no mean task.
