China is the world's largest market for marine ingredients and it is an important strategic growth area for QRILL Pet (and Aker BioMarine). One of the key factors for the brand's development in the Chinese market is having a local team that consists of well-experienced professionals within the pet food industry in the region.

'China is an extremely fast developing pet food market and we are already making strides with Fullpet Co.,' said Matts Johansen, CEO, Aker BioMarine. 'We are much more than an ingredient supplier.
