The company shared several plans to ramp up sales growth for its pet segment in its fourth quarter financial results.

Blue Buffalo is expanding into the fresh pet food segment and Edgard & Cooper is making its US debut. 

Dana McNabb has been promoted to group president of North America Retail and North America Pet for the company.

Third quarter net sales for its North America Pet business were flat.

Jon Nudi will retire June 30 and Liz Mascolo will be promoted to segment president. 

The company’s US pet food business held its dollar share for the first time in two years. 

The acquisition includes the Tiki Pets and Cloud Star brands and two manufacturing facilities. 

The company witnessed mixed results across the board but continues to improve Blue Buffalo’s market share.

CEO Jeff Harmening reports gradual improvement in the company’s pet business.

The brand aims to reduce its carbon emissions and increase its usage of sustainable packaging.
