Mitchell’s Wins First South American Contract

Mitchell’s reputation is stretching even further across the globe, with a new project starting in Argentina this month. Mars Cono Sur (Mars Southern Cone) have ordered a steam oven for their pet care manufacturing facility in Argentina. Like the rest of the Mars Petcare family, Mars Cono Sur are primarily in the business of producing dog and cat food under the brands Pedigree and Whiskas. The steam oven will be used for cooking the meat mixture, before it is sent via coolers and cutters,

also provided by Mitchell’s Equipment, to be made into bite size pet food pieces. Mitchells successfully installed another steam oven into the Mars Petcare facility here in China back in December 2007. So on hearing good reports on Mitchell’s equipment coming from Mars Petcare in China, Cono Sur were quick to contact us. We’re certainly glad they did, as this project will see the first piece of Mitchell’s Equipment sent to South America, another milestone in Mitchell’s history.
