More WIRE STORIES about this company

 PROFILE
Purina Mills, a leading US commercial animal feed producer, is bulking up for investor appeal. It makes about four million tons of dry kibble a year, including hog, chicken, horse, and cattle feed, as well as specialty feed for lab animals and exotic pets. No longer part of Dog Chow maker Ralston Purina, Purina Mills now makes its own brand of dog and cat food and operates more than 40 America's Country Store retail outlets. It has also been expanding its feed-dealer network. Purina Mills became a unit of Koch Industries in 1998 but filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy in 1999 due to a slump in hog feed sales. It emerged from bankruptcy and went public in 2000; it has agreed to be acquired by #2 US dairy co-op Land O'Lakes.
