Scottish-based Wilsons Pet Food has received a £1 million investment from The Investment Fund for Scotland (IFS), managed by Maven Capital Partners, delivered by the British Business Bank.

Wilsons is the UK’s leading producer of natural cold pressed dry dog food, with two established manufacturing facilities, whilst also producing raw meals, treats and a recently launched range of supplements.

Craig Wallace, managing director at Wilsons, said: “This investment from Maven Capital Partners in partnership with the British Business Bank could not come at a more exciting time for Wilsons.

“Following our successful rebrand, this investment will be used to enhance production further, helping us complete the installation of a new cold pressed facility. This will enable us to more than quadruple our current production capacity.

“It will also support the launch of a brand new range of food, invest in some incredible new team members and helpincrease our support and advertising for our independent pet trade customers.”
