TopLife grows in export markets


TopLife Formula, the range of natural pet milks, food and treats for dogs, puppies, cats and kittens, has extended its reach internationally, announcing new export markets in East Asia.

The pet brand, owned by speciality dairy, Delamere Dairy, has enjoyed significant growth in overseas markets during the last 12 months with sales of its Goats Milk for Dog, Puppy and Kitten products, as well as its Puppy and Kitten Goats Milk Powders, increasing across Singapore, Malaysia, Korea and Japan.

This latest announcement will see TopLife Milks also available in Thailand as dairy products across East Asia continue to gain momentum.

Following the opening of its first oversees office in Hong Kong at the end of 2011, Delamere Dairy has enjoyed significant growth internationally with both its TopLife and Delamere Dairy milk brands.  

“Our TopLife brand is a niche product with strong USPs," said Ed Salt, MD of Delamere Dairy. "Since making a conscious effort to push the brand into other markets and develop export opportunities with the opening or our Hong Kong office, it’s great that all the hard work has paid off.

“We are working hard to build on our 28 years of experience to and expertise to reach new markets both here and internationally and expect to see further growth during 2013.”
