The acquisition, which signals the group's intention to continue its expansion into pet health and wellness, is subject to customary closing conditions and is a full takeover of the privately-owned Zesty Paws business.
Zesty Paws points out that it will benefit from H&H's expertise and resources to further drive the brand's growth while being able to operate independently. H&H regards the acquisition as a strategic opportunity as the company builds its Pet Nutrition & Care (PNC) division as a third pillar alongside its existing business segments of adult nutrition & care and baby nutrition & care.
