The availability and variety of these items put Milk-Bone in a great position for the pet treats industry. However, the risk of infestation in the package you can get affects a lot on the customer. Consider providing more and alternative bags or containers for the small boxes which require cutting of individual snacks and colour and the size predilection of these snacks have to be considered.
