Trouw Nutrition Scandinavia
Our products are ecologically and economically unique. Our knowledge is cutting edge. Because we know that good feed is about much more than just good raw materials. So, we not only provide the best product, but also the right support and innovations. Every day, but without getting complacent. We set the standard in the global agricultural industry and have had a strong connection with the local farming community here for almost 100 years. We are loyal, or Trouw, as they say in Dutch. That way, we can do more together with fewer resources, less effort and less burden on the environment. We call this "sustainable nutrition". Sustainable for animals and for our company. For today and for tomorrow.
