History
According to AKIIKA’s official story, the brand was established in 2020 during the COVID-19 pandemic.
The company states that two people sharing the name Kai met at an animal adoption center while adopting a puppy named AKA. Inspired by that encounter and their shared appreciation for animal companionship, they founded AKIIKA Pets.
The brand says its name combines:
-
AKA (the adopted puppy)
-
KAI
-
KAI
forming AKIIKA, representing compassion, resilience, and second chances for both pets and people. This origin story comes from the company’s own “About Us” page. [3]
