Reliability, continuity, and renewal. These are the keywords that describe our business, beginning with the sourcing and selection of raw materials, up to the point that our products leave the retailer on their way to reach satisfied consumers.
Sourcing

We have been dealing in grains, seeds, pulses, products for human consumption, animal foods, and by-products for over 200 years. Arising from a merger between different companies, we have strong roots in the international pet food business and our products are sold throughout the world.

Manufacturing

Our factory has ultra-modern production and storage facilities for processing and cleaning raw materials, and for the production of various pet foods. We are continuously developing and renewing our facilities in order to meet the changing, specific needs of our customers in a fast and flexible way. This includes, for example, the Quality Assurance which supports our unique high pressure vermin treatment. Our factory is capable of producing 100,000 tons of finished products per year. Half of the products we produce are sold under our own brands while the other half are sold under private labels.
