SOURCING THE BEST INGREDIENTS FROM AROUND THE WORLD

At Premier Nutrition, we are committed and well-positioned to source the best raw materials from around the world. We have a wealth of experience in the procurement of global commodities in increasingly volatile markets. Our raw material procurement teams work closely with customers to source and supply individual raw material requirements.

All raw materials sourced by Premier Nutrition pass strict approval procedures before they are bought, including a full nutritionist review. This means customers have complete confidence and assurance in the quality of supply.

Incoming raw material batches are sampled and checked in the Premier Nutrition laboratory using NIR for authenticity. Using this service assures customers of our high product standards.

All incoming raw materials are purchased against specifications from certified sources (e.g. FAMI-QS, GMP+ etc.) approved by Premier Nutrition and can be traced back to the factory of origin.

FEED MANUFACTURING ENGINEERED FOR QUALITY

Our state-of-the-art tumblemix manufacturing facility in the UK provides levels of accuracy and integrity that set the standards for premix manufacture worldwide.

Management of cross contamination risk is a constant priority, including drug residues. Some of our manufacturing sites do not handle medicines, eradicating risk completely.
