AB Agri said NMR is positioned as a “highly respected and present voice across the dairy sector” and has found great success.
“NMR’s success has been driven by strong collaborative relationships with key industry players, including dairy farmers, vets, milk processors, third party suppliers, and major retailers,” it said.
“NMR continues to develop and invest in new products and services, notably genomics and GenoCells.”
Commenting on the acquisition, AB Agri’s chief executive José Nobre said: “I am delighted that AB Agri has acquired NMR. NMR is a high-quality business which is extremely complementary and additive to our dairy strategy and offering to the dairy industry.
“We have supported dairy farmers for more than 30 years with nutrition and specialty feed products, and more recently with data and technology platforms which deliver insights that create continuous improvement in agricultural supply chains.”
NMR’s finance director, MArk Frankcom, said NMR was delighted to now be a part of AB Agri.
“AB Agri’s status within the UK agricultural sector and expertise in the dairy industry will provide a significant benefit to NMR’s customers,” he said.
“The backing of AB Agri will accelerate and de-risk NMR’s ability to deliver its strategic objectives, streamlining industry processes by creating a holistic business that can provide end-to-end data and analysis to ensure the long-term sustainability, efficiency and profitability of UK dairy.”
