The Belgian pet food manufacturer will take over Gold Line Feeds' brands and customer base in the UK.
The acquisition of Gold Line Feeds, an independent animal feed manufacturer with 80 years of experience in the sector, is expected to strengthen the position of United as a full-service private label producer.
The UK branch of United Petfood will administer the production and distribution of 20,000 tons of dry pet food a year that the company produces in its factory in Northamptonshire.
The United Petfood Group, which has 20 pet food facilities in 8 European countries, acquired a new factory in April 2022 from the Neodis Group in southwest France.
