History

At Glennfinnan Irish Wolfhound kennel, Jos van der Linden and Nanette Waldorp decided to go back to the source in 1988. In their kennel, they bred Irish Wolfhounds. The Irish Wolfhound is an extremely fast-growing breed where optimal nutrition is of utmost importance. Jos and Nannette found that the commercial food they could buy in kibble form was not giving the desired results. The feed they started making themselves proved to be a golden touch. The dogs' condition improved noticeably, young dogs grew up evenly and diarrhoea was part of the past.

Soon, other breeders and dog owners saw the difference and became interested in the raw meat meals as a result. In no time over 200 dogs were eating Energique. After this, things went fast. Energique grew through word-of-mouth advertising. To this day, Energique has no representatives. The quality of the product sells itself.

Energique now and in the future

Since early 2024, Energique is proud to be part of The Nutriment Company, an umbrella organisation that manages and connects several animal nutrition brands. Esmae Minne and Karel Nijholt, who acquired Energique in 2015 and continued to grow the company, carefully chose The Nutriment Company as their new partner. The Nutriment Company shares the same passion for quality and natural nutrition, creating a strong synergy. Led by Managing Director Benjamin Mast, Energique remains true to its philosophy and high quality standards, now and in the future.
