UK Pet Food has announced the appointment of two new chairs to lead its Sustainability Committee – Priya Hamilton, Corporate Affairs Manager at Purina and Caroline Curtis, Operations Director at Tails.com.

Both Priya and Caroline have been active members of the committee since its formation in 2020. The committee's mission is to support its members on their journeys towards a more sustainable future. Sustainable raw materials, environmentally friendly production, and recyclable packaging materials, all play a major role in ensuring the long-term sustainability of the pet food industry.

On the new appointment, Priya of Purina commented: “I am really thrilled to be taking up the position as Sustainability Co-Chair at UK Pet Food. I believe that as a business, we can really create a tangible impact and be a force for good. This impact can be even larger if we work together as an industry, driving collaboration and collective effort for the greater good.”

Caroline, responsible for end-to-end value chain at B Corp Tails.com, advised: “I’m excited to take up the position as I'm passionate about changing the world for good through responsible business. UK Pet Food is a wonderful organisation fostering collaboration to advocate for change.”

Welcome to Priya and Caroline and we look forward to seeing the progressive work of the committee over the coming months.
