  • Optimin® Chelated Minerals – Organic trace minerals made Mother Nature’s way
Every attendee will receive a free copy of Trouw Nutrition’s newest edition of Trouw Pet Nutrition Outlook. Written by Trouw Nutrition Companion Animal Nutritionist, Dr. Trevor Faber, this fourth edition explores the science and benefits of the Life Fiber Technology program. 
Dr. Faber, who earned his Ph.D. in Companion Animal Nutrition from the University of Illinois, said, “Trouw takes a holistic approach to supporting the health and well-being of pets. We identified that the pet food industry lacks a focus on dietary fiber, despite its importance for gut health and satisfactory stool quality. Trouw committed its resources to help serve the industry through its Life Fiber Technology program, designed to ensure proper dietary fiber formulation. Read about this program and the benefits of dietary fiber in our upcoming edition of Trouw Petfood Nutrition Outlook and stop by our booth at Petfood Forum to learn more.” For previous additions, visit: www.trouwpetnutritionoutlook.com.
Dr. Faber and Scott Baker, Manager of Companion Animal Strategic Marketing and Analytics, will speak to the undergraduate and graduate students who are presenting their pet food-related research. Dr. Faber and Baker will discuss their career paths and how they got to where they are today. They will give the students time to ask questions and learn more about the pet food industry. 
Petfood Forum attendees may connect with industry expert Dr. Faber, Baker and the 19 other Trouw Nutrition employees representing Customer Service, Finance, IT, Logistics, Marketing, Quality Control, Research and Development, and Sales at Booth 720. 
Trouw Nutrition will distribute free T-shirts, a tradition and highlight of Petfood Forum, as well as dog toys and other fun giveaways. Attendees have also come to expect adorable puppies at the Trouw Nutrition booth. This year, the booth will feature two purebred Golden Retriever puppies. 
“Please come join your Trouw team at our booth, number 720, where you will find cute lovable puppies and a warm welcoming atmosphere, so you can relax and enjoy a hot cup of coffee or a cold bottle of water,” said Chuck Hayden, Vice President, Companion Animal Division. “We are very happy that we can take this time to say ‘thank you’ for your business and to be your host. Our team looks forward to seeing you and visiting with you about any pet food questions, challenges, and opportunities you may have.”
