Farmina Pet Foods

Farmina Pet Foods is a premium nutrition company specializing in scientifically formulated diets for dogs and cats. Founded in Italy, the brand has a rich history that began in 1965 with Russo Mangimi, a company established by Francesco Russo. In 1999, the focus shifted exclusively to pet nutrition under the leadership of Dr. Angelo Russo, who collaborated with a UK-based research firm named Farmina to develop the initial product lines, eventually acquiring the brand.

Today, Farmina remains a family-owned and operated entity under Farmina Pet Foods Holding. The company maintains a global production footprint with key manufacturing facilities located in Italy (Nola), Serbia (Indjija), Brazil (São Paulo), and a newly inaugurated state-of-the-art facility in the United States (Reidsville, North Carolina). Farmina is recognized for its high-quality ingredient sourcing and rigorous safety standards that often exceed local regulatory requirements, utilizing a 'farm-to-table' approach through partnerships with regional farms.
