Allen Nutrition Background

Allen Nutrition is a specialist manufacturer of animal feed supplements, licensed by the Department of Agriculture (Manufacturing License No. 496) and with EU Approval to manufacture premixtures and mineral mixtures (No. aIEC000538).

The company, Bob Allen (Nutritional Supplements) Ltd, was formed in 1986 by Bob Allen who had previously been a sole trader, starting the business in 1981. Gerald Allen and his wife Jane took over the company on Bob’s retirement in 1995 and have continued to develop the business since then.

Our objective is to create the best mineral supplements to solve the potential and actual mineral problems of the animal (herd or individual), to achieve optimum health and performance, from the best/most suitable sources available; within the monetary constraints available to the horse owner: and encompass related activities to achieve this aim; while including feed safety as a priority within our manufacturing system.
