Our history

Successfully doing things our own way

1987
The Stockmeyer Group (later called heristo ag) acquires a small pet food factory in Hattem (NL)
1987 - 1991
Following extensive modernisation measures and the restructuring of the company, the first cans of dog and cat food roll off the production line. The foundations for the industrial production of pet food have thus been laid.
1991
A new, larger production facility is built in Bremen.
1992-1999
saturn petcare continuously expands into new product sectors: alongside dry food and snacks, the range will soon include dog biscuits and cat milk. In 1999, saturn petcare started its cooperation with the company bosch in Blaufelden, which specialises in the production of high-quality dry food.

A modern high-bay warehouse with space for more than 20,000 pallets is opened at the site in Bremen.
