In this episode of the Grow Clinton Podcast, Andy and Jenny host Emma Johnson and Lee Jacobsen of Nestle Purina PetCare Company, located in Clinton, Iowa.

The belief that pets and people are better together has guided Nestlé Purina PetCare for over 90 years.

The company cares deeply about the quality of its food because they share their customer's passion for pets.

For more information, visit https://www.purina.com.

Purina's Clinton factory produces some of the company's most popular pet food and treat brands and is a hub for new products. The pet food production expansion includes new cooking and packaging lines that will be used to make various pet food brands, including Purina ONE, Purina Pro Plan, and Purina Pro Plan Veterinary Diets. Pet owners' growing demand for the company's nutritious, science-based dog and cat foods, which use high-quality and trusted ingredients, drives this expansion.

Recently, the Clinton factory made a significant capital investment by constructing the ASRS, an automated storage and retrieval system. The massive vertical structure functions as a "vending machine"-style system, enabling the safe and climate-controlled storage of palletized products. Robotics and other technologies ensure ease of use, tracking, shipping, and loading of trucks.

"The pet care industry is dynamic and thriving, and Purina's role as the category leader is one that we take seriously," said Andrea Faccio, Chief Growth Officer at Purina. "The ongoing investment in our business, including this expansion in Clinton, sets us up for continued growth in the future and helps us meet increasing demand from pet owners who have placed their trust in Purina to deliver nutritious and high-quality dog and cat foods."

Nestlé Purina PetCare creates richer lives for pets and the people who love them. Founded in 1894, Purina has helped dogs and cats live longer, healthier lives by offering scientifically based nutritional innovations. Purina manufactures some of the world's most trusted and popular pet care products, including Dog Chow, Purina ONE, Pro Plan, Fancy Feast, and Tidy Cats.

The more than 8,700 U.S. associates at Purina take pride in the company's trusted pet food, treat, and litter brands, which feed 51 million dogs and 65 million cats every year. More than 500 Purina scientists, veterinarians, and pet care experts ensure our commitment to unsurpassed quality and nutrition.

In this episode of the Grow Clinton Podcast, Andy and Jenny are joined by Grow Clinton member Dan Fisher of Fisher House Bed & Breakfast, located in Downtown Clinton, Iowa.

The Fisher House B&B is a veteran-owned and operated business. The Fishers purchased the house in 2007 while Dan was still on active duty in the United States Air Force. The primary motivation for purchasing the house was its location close to relatives that the family had not spent much time with during our 25 years in military service. The other motivation was a desire to renovate and save a historic house. Once the house was identified, the idea of a Clinton-based B&B was born!

Please visit https://www.fisherhousebb.com/ to learn more.

The Fisher House Bed & Breakfast is a remodeled 1880s Queen Anne Victorian home located four blocks off the Mighty Mississippi River. The bed & breakfast has four tastefully decorated second-floor rooms, each with a private bath for your convenience. All bedrooms feature TEMPUR-PEDIC mattresses for maximum guest comfort.

When you arise to take on the day, a full, home-cooked breakfast is available from 6:30 to 9:00am. You can stay connected at home with Wi-Fi. When visiting, please take some time to explore the site and engage the team if you need something extra to accommodate your lodging requirements.
