About Antelope

Antelope, an omni-channel, pet consumer platform, was founded in August 2021 with the mission to elevate the lives of pets by delivering the highest quality products across all pet products and services via a buy and build strategy. “Ante” means to increase the stakes or consideration of, and “lope” means to leap with bounding steps–together, we are elevating the standards of pet care by buying, building and growing high-quality, natural pet brands. We’re backed by Alpine Investors and have made four acquisitions so far (Bocce’s Bakery, Diggin’ Your Dog / Super Snouts, Doggo, and Ark Naturals), and we’re still just getting started! We have plans to acquire 5-15 additional all-natural, high-quality brands to become the one-stop-shop for pet parents.
