Diana Pet Food, has purchased the land to host a new production plant. It will replace the site currently operating in the city of Querétaro. The surface of the new land exceeds the previous one by five times. The building will cover 3,400m2 exceeding the previous one as well.
'We inaugurated our plant in Mexico in 2004 investing in a market that was showing signs of becoming one of the most thriving markets in the world. Today 17 years later, Mexico stands among the five largest producers of pet food in the world. With this new project, we reaffirm our commitment to our clients and get prepared for the new challenges that the market holds for us. We also continue working with the city of Queretaro for our activity' states Diego Maurizio, Diana Pet Food LATAM General Manager.
Diana Pet Food offers a portfolio of products that addresses all needs of the Mexican and Central American pet food markets. The new plant, which should be operating in 2024, will follow the company global standards in terms of quality and food safety and operational excellence.
