Farmina Pet Foods

Farmina Pet Foods is an Italian family company that makes dry and wet food for dogs and cats. It describes itself as a third-generation, family-owned and operated pet nutrition company, founded in 1965 in Naples. Francesco Russo started with an animal-nutrition company called Russo Mangimi, and in 1999 his son Dr Angelo Russo moved the business into pet food.

Research and range

• Farmina Vet Research, a team of veterinarians and nutrition specialists, works with the chair of animal nutrition at the University of Naples Federico II
• The N&D lines include recipes such as Pumpkin, Ancestral Grain, Prime and Quinoa for dogs and cats
• Diets for pets with health conditions are developed with independent veterinarians in Italy

Good to know

The company says it focuses on science and nutrition. Not every line is sold in every country, so the product range on the national Farmina website is the reference.
