ForFarmers UK has announced that it has entered into an agreement to acquire Advanced Ruminant Nutrition (ARN), an independent UK specialist in ruminant nutrition and consultancy services. It is expected to close this transaction in the fourth quarter of this year.
Strengthening of long-standing relationship
Established 20 years ago and headquartered in Lancaster, ARN supports livestock farmers across the UK through a team of 16 nutritionists. The business has built a strong market position through its independent advice, technical expertise and customer-focused approach.
The acquisition strengthens the long-standing relationship between ForFarmers and ARN and supports the continued development of both businesses. ARN will continue to operate independently under its existing management structure, led by Managing Director Grant Spittal.
Mark Cole, Managing Director ForFarmers UK: “ARN has developed a strong reputation in the market and has demonstrated consistent growth over many years. The business complements our activities well and we look forward to supporting its continued development.”
Grant Spittal, Managing Director ARN: “Joining ForFarmers provides a strong foundation for our next phase of growth. We will continue to operate independently, maintaining our whole-farm approach while investing in innovation, technical expertise and customer support.”
Customers will continue to work with their existing ARN contacts and will see no changes to the services provided.
