Overseas distributors in a frenzy over Fisherman's Daughter



On her return from Italy where her company exhibited the new Fisherman's Daughter range of products, Jill Angell, from Angell Associates, said:  “We had a fantastically successful Zoomark – the best one we have ever attended actually.”

"We met lots of our old customers there – and some really good new ones as well. Distributors were practically fighting over us in the aisles, all wanting to be the first in their country with our new Fisherman’s Daughter brand.
 
"The keys to the interest were two-fold – the new Icelandic Fish Treat production factory – which can now make lots of different types of fish treats – absolutely superb quality and much better than Chinese production. 

"Also we launched our new ‘Maltese Miracle’ ingredient – Padina Pavonica, which is a cell-regenerator, helping strengthen bones, fixate calcium in the joints, rejuvenate keratin and collagen. 

"PP has been in the human and veterinary agricultural sectors for over 10 years and is well-established in these industries – however this is the first time it has ever been introduced to the companion animal industry.”
