Kammac reports pet industry growth as likes of Perky Tails choose to partner with supply chain specialist

Kammac, a UK-based logistics and supply chain provider, says it is capitalising on Britain's flourishing pet industry with a series of new contracts.

Perky Tails, a UK-based manufacturer of dog toys and accessories, is one such business who has chosen to partner with it. The contract, which began in May this year, sees Kammac as Perky Tails’ chosen storage and fulfilment provider.

“Since partnering with Kammac just over two months ago, our operations have been nothing short of fantastic," says David Primrose, Director at Perky Tails.

"Kammac’s communication, responsiveness, and advanced technology solutions have been instrumental in supporting our integration with new marketplaces. They have truly added value to our operations, and I look forward to further strengthening our relationship." 

The Kammac Wavertree 170 site is central to its expansion efforts, serving as a key hub for storing, distributing, and fulfilling a wide array of pet products.

The company’s headquarters at Skelmersdale M58 365 has also become a crucial location for new clients in the pet industry, providing a combined transportation hub and warehouse for all storage and distribution requirements. 

This expansion coincides with significant growth in the pet industry, which is currently valued at £182.7 billion, and experiencing unprecedented demand. UK dog owners alone spend £10 billion annually, while cat owners contribute £8 billion.

Currently, 57% of UK households own a pet, and major retailers like Amazon have reported a 67% increase in pet food sales over the past two years.

"With years of experience in the pet industry, we really understand what pet brands need. From storing pet foods to getting them to store and handling e-commerce orders, we cover all of it for our clients" says Ged Carabini, Chief Executive Officer at Kammac.

"As the demand for logistics in the pet sector keeps growing, we're committed to providing tailored supply chain solutions. Our team is dedicated to offering exceptional service and creative solutions to meet the changing needs of our clients in this exciting market."
