Kerry Brings Sustainable Nutrition, Flavor and Well-Being to the Pet Market in Latin America

São Paulo, May 2025 – Kerry, a global leader in sustainable nutrition, is taking another important step into the Latin American market and is now offering its customers solutions for the pet market, based on its already established and recognized expertise in flavor and human nutrition, combining quality and sensory experience. The Irish multinational will be present with its technologies for the pet industry at Fenagra 2025 – International Agroindustry Fair - Feed & Food (Technology and Processing), between May 13 and 15, in the Anhembi District, in São Paulo.
 

Kerry's extensive portfolio, combined with the trends of humanization and premiumization in the pet industry, positions Kerry as a partner in innovation. According to research conducted in 2020, 68.6% of pet owners stated that they try to positively impact the environment. At the same time, among those born between the 1980s and early 1990s, 75% are willing to change their consumption habits in order to reduce environmental impact.
