Alimentos Concentrados Raza, S.A and Kentucky Equine Research Combine Forces
Colombian feed manufacturer Alimentos Concentrados Raza, S.A (Raza) began an ongoing affiliation with Kentucky Equine Research (KER) in 2009. This alliance is designed to provide assistance as Raza extends the scope of its presence in the Colombian equine marketplace by ensuring the continued production of high-quality feeds.
The partnership with KER has allowed the feed manufacturing professionals at Raza to increase their knowledge of equine nutrition, reinforcing the company’s reputation and supporting its competitive position in the Colombian horse feed market.
As part of a major industrial group in Colombia, Raza has been manufacturing animal feeds for nearly half a century. The company has many years of experience in developing horse feed formulas with a high standard of ingredients and providing technical support to its exigent clientele.
KER nutritionists have worked closely with the feed professionals at Raza in helping to expand the company's line of feeds to include specialized products, supporting Raza's long-established commitment to the equine community of Colombia. The partnership with KER adds a superior dimension of quality to the well-made feeds produced by Raza. Counseling and advice from KER’s feed management specialists keeps Raza on the cutting edge as developments in equine nutrition occur.
With feed-manufacturing clients on six continents, KER is well-known for its ability to develop horse feeds suited for the particular regions in which they are to be fed. The company's research efforts are the cornerstone of KER, and conclusions drawn from these trials are used in the formulation of technologically advanced feeds.
In addition to its research endeavors, KER has a rich tradition of providing top-of-the-line feeds to the greatest equine athletes in the world. In 2000, the company was tapped to be the official nutritionist of the United States Equestrian Federation, and the company maintains that designation today. KER has also played a pivotal role in procuring feeds for the last four Olympic Games as well as other international competitions.
