Valuing nature, partnering with farmers, and enriching pet lives
Marriage's, a company with a rich heritage of six generations of milling experience, has developed a comprehensive range of pet foods and small holding feeds.

Our Journey: From Wind and Water Power to National Supplier
In 1824, William and Henry Marriage started milling the wheat produced on their family farm. The brothers established a company that grew rapidly, using wind and water power to mill bread flour and livestock feed. Over the years, Marriage's has grown with the times, now offering a wide range of animal feeds and pet foods. We supply retailers and farmers across the country, continuously focusing on producing quality products, reliable service, and value for money.
Interestingly, Marriage's also mills flour. If you're interested in learning more, please visit our flour milling website here.
