ISO 22000 · Made in the EU Explore our top-tier extruded dry foods, functional treats, and high-omega marine supplements custom-tailored for Colombian importers, distributors, and pet brands.
The Colombian pet industry is undergoing a structural paradigm shift. Driven by rapid urbanisation across major metropolitan hubs such as Bogotá, Medellín, Cali, and Barranquilla, companion animals are increasingly viewed as core family members. This "pet humanisation" movement has generated unprecedented demand for functional nutrition, specifically high-potency marine supplements enriched with essential polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs), notably Eicosapentaenoic Acid (EPA) and Docosahexaenoic Acid (DHA).
As Colombian importers, distributors, and commercial pet food factories seek reliable overseas manufacturing partners, the focus has pivoted toward suppliers capable of delivering stable, EU-compliant, high-potency salmon oil formulations. Sourcing raw marine lipids or pre-coated extruded dry kibble directly from audited European facilities allows Colombian brands to capture market share in premium veterinary clinics, specialized pet shops, and major retail chains like Agrocampo, Laika, and Petys.
The rise in consumption of salmon oil and salmon-enriched kibble in Latin America—and Colombia in particular—is fueled by three distinct commercial dynamics:
How our refined salmon oil and extruded nutrition solutions integrate into local manufacturing, retail, and commercial agricultural channels.
For industrial pet food producers in Antioquia and Cundinamarca, our stabilized bulk salmon oil is engineered for thermal vacuum coating. Penetrating deep into dry kibble pores without leaving greasy surface residues, it ensures high palatability and oxidation resistance during tropical transit.
We supply pure, cold-filtered Atlantic salmon oil in bulk drums or private-label pump bottles ready for Colombian shelf placement. Formulated with natural mixed tocopherols (Vitamin E) to prevent oxidation in warm coastal warehouse conditions.
Colombia's thriving aquaculture sector—particularly tilapia farming in Huila and trout production in Boyacá—utilizes our marine lipid feeds to improve fry survival rates, optimize feed conversion ratios (FCR), and boost innate immune defenses.
Maintaining oil purity and preventing rancidity (peroxidation) is critical when shipping ocean freight across the Atlantic to key Colombian entry ports such as Cartagena and Buenaventura. Below is the technical breakdown of our pure salmon oil supply standard:
| Nutritional & Quality Parameter | Standard Specification Range | Analytical Testing Method | Commercial Relevance for Colombia |
|---|---|---|---|
| Free Fatty Acids (FFA) | < 1.5 % | ISO 660 / AOCS Ca 5a-40 | Ensures clean palatability without bitter off-notes. |
| Peroxide Value (POV) | < 3.0 meq/kg | ISO 3960 / AOCS Cd 8b-90 | Guarantees fresh oil entry into tropical storage. |
| Total Omega-3 Fatty Acids | 14.0 % – 18.0 % | Gas Chromatography (GC-FID) | High bio-availability for canine dermal & coat formulas. |
| EPA (Eicosapentaenoic Acid) | 5.0 % – 8.0 % | ISO 12966 / GC-FID | Controls systemic inflammation & joint stiffness. |
| DHA (Docosahexaenoic Acid) | 6.0 % – 9.0 % | ISO 12966 / GC-FID | Supports neurological & retinal development in puppies/kittens. |
| TOTOX Value (Total Oxidation) | < 10.0 | Calculated (2xPOV + AV) | Demonstrates ultra-low thermal damage during extraction. |
| Antioxidant Stabilization | Natural Tocopherols (1,000 ppm) | HPLC Analysis | Preserves lipid integrity in non-refrigerated retail channels. |
All export shipments are accompanied by a comprehensive Certificate of Analysis (COA) issued by our certified laboratory, alongside sanitary certificates validated for ICA registration in Colombia.
As a premier European contract manufacturer backed by over 30 years of extrusion and pet food processing experience, our Csévharaszt production site operates under strict ISO 22000 food safety protocols. We offer distinct operational advantages over standard brokers:
Operated under EU Regulations 767/2009 and 183/2005, our plant delivers unmatched quality assurance. Every raw ingredient batch is screened prior to extrusion, guaranteeing zero chemical contaminants or heavy metal accumulation.
Our in-house animal nutritionists adapt kibble geometry, palatability coatings, and analytical protein-to-fat ratios to suit Colombian price points and target consumer niches—from economy bulk packs to super-premium grain-free recipes.
We streamline international expansion for Colombian distributors by offering low minimum order quantities (MOQs starting at 5 tonnes for dry kibbles and standard flexible packaging runs), enabling lean inventory management and rapid test launches.
We provide a complete technical export dossier required by ICA for importing animal feed and supplements into Colombia. This includes official Certificates of Free Sale (CFS), Sanitary Certificates endorsed by competent EU veterinary authorities, complete qualitative-quantitative formula disclosures, batch analysis reports, and manufacturing process flowcharts.
Our salmon oil and salmon-coated kibble formulations utilize advanced natural anti-oxidant systems (mixed natural tocopherols and rosemary extract). Liquid batches are blanketed with nitrogen during bottling or flexitank loading. Packaging options include multi-layer high-barrier foil pouches with oxygen scavengers to ensure complete oxidative stability upon arrival at Colombian ports.
Initial formulation alignment and artwork approval take approximately 2–3 weeks. Once specifications are locked, production and packaging run within 3–4 weeks. Maritime freight from European ports to Cartagena typically averages 18–24 days, allowing a total project timeline of 7–9 weeks from initial purchase order to warehouse receipt in Colombia.
Yes. We offer complete OEM/ODM customization. You can choose from small 4 mm puppy/kitten croquettes up to 20 mm large-breed kibbles, with custom shapes (hearts, bones, discs). Protein levels can be calibrated from 18% to 32% with customized fat coatings using pure salmon oil.
We typically operate under FOB European Port or CIF Cartagena / Buenaventura incoterms. Flexible payment terms—including Wire Transfer (T/T) and Irrevocable Letters of Credit (L/C at sight)—are available for audited Colombian distributors and long-term supply agreements.
