Company details
Where TOP’s Parrot Food products are made
Most brands make you infer it. TOP’s puts it in the FAQ under its own heading — “Where are your products made?” / “All TOP’s products are made in the United States” — and repeats it in its story page: “Based in Oregon, TOP’s supports local jobs and purchases ingredients from its domestic partners. All of our products are made in the United States.”
The parrot pellet page goes further than origin of manufacture: the pellets are “made with all organic ingredients from the United States and are cold-pressed.” Cold-pressing is the company’s technical differentiator — pellets extruded at low temperature rather than baked.
TOP’s refers to “our facility” without naming a city, so whether production is in-house or with a domestic co-packer is undisclosed. The US-ingredient claim is per-SKU on the pellets only; the seed mixes and Tesoro treats rely on the company-level claim, and ingredient lists include kelp, dulse, turmeric, cinnamon, cayenne, kamut and spelt — commodities the site does not address. USDA Organic is a farming certification, not an origin one, and is not counted as origin evidence here.
Made in USA rests here on an explicit, unambiguous company statement made in answer to the question itself, backed by a per-SKU US-ingredient claim on the flagship pellets. The honest gaps are the unnamed facility and the unaddressed imported commodities in the seed and treat lines, and both are stated above rather than papered over.
The story
“Founded in 2003, TOP’s Parrot Food™ is an award-winning manufacturer of parrot food pellets, seed mixes and treats,” the company writes. It operates from Beaverton, Oregon, and describes itself as Oregon-based.
The product that defines it is the cold-pressed pellet. Conventional bird pellets are extruded under heat; TOP’s presses its organic ingredients at low temperature, which is the basis of its argument to avian vets and breeders. Around it sit organic seed mixes — All-in-One, Napoleon’s, Dream Mix — Birdie Bread mixes, and germinated, dehydrated Tesoro seed treats.
The range earned USDA Organic certification through the Oregon Department of Agriculture, which is a meaningful step for a company whose entire pitch is ingredient quality rather than price.
Why they matter
Companion parrots live for decades and are unusually sensitive to what they eat, which makes bird food a category where owners actually read labels and ask where things are made.
TOP’s answers in plain words on its own FAQ rather than leaving the question to a badge. That is a low bar in principle and a rare one in practice, particularly in pet nutrition, where private-label and co-packed product is the norm.
The cold-pressing and the organic certification also pull in the same direction as domestic production: both are process claims that need a cooperative, auditable plant, which is easier to maintain close to home.

TOP’s Parrot Food questions
Is TOP’s Parrot Food made in the USA?
Yes, and the company says so directly. Its FAQ carries the heading “Where are your products made?” with the answer “All TOP’s products are made in the United States,” repeated on its story page.
Where is TOP’s Parrot Food based?
Beaverton, Oregon. The company publishes 7930 SW Nimbus Avenue, Beaverton, OR 97008 on its contact page and describes itself as Oregon-based.
Are the ingredients American too?
Partly, and only the pellets say so per product: they are “made with all organic ingredients from the United States.” The seed mixes and treats rely on the company-level statement, and their ingredient lists include commodities such as kelp and turmeric that the site does not address.
Is the food certified organic?
Yes — USDA Organic, certified through the Oregon Department of Agriculture. That is a farming and handling certification rather than an origin one, so this profile treats it as separate from the made-in-the-USA claim.
