King Country Pet food expands co-manufacturing facility
The New Zealand company’s new facility has a 40,000 tons of annual capacity.
With this expansion, King Country will have the largest and most modern pet food processing facility in the country, according to the company.
The facility has been designed with maximum flexibility in mind, and at the heart of the facility, will be a Wenger Thermal Twin-Screw extruder, designed to handle very high levels of fresh meats and fish. High speed automated packing equipment is also in place with the ability to handle a wide range of pack sizes. “Whatever your manufacturing challenge is we can help you deliver against the latest market trends and consumer demand for products”.
Production in this facility is scheduled to start in June 2022.
