Nuestra historia

KLN Family Brands es una empresa familiar de tercera generación que comenzó en 1964 y cuya sede corporativa se encuentra en Perham, Minnesota, en el corazón de la región de los lagos de Minnesota. Juntas, nuestras empresas fabrican una gama diversa y en expansión de productos alimenticios de alta calidad para humanos y mascotas.

En KLN Family Brands, nuestra visión es que “Somos una empresa orgullosa que pone a las personas en primer lugar. Tenemos éxito gracias a relaciones basadas en la confianza y productos de primera clase para nuestras familias y amigos. Mejoramos el mundo al preocuparnos por los demás. Desafiamos. Crecemos. Inspiramos.”

Algunas empresas tienen que “exagerar un poco la historia” para venderse mejor. Algunas necesitan un poco de “maquillaje” adicional para dar una luz positiva sobre sí mismas. Ese no es nuestro caso en KLN Family Brands, y no es lo que hacemos. Contamos la historia de nuestra marca: nuestra gente, la calidad de nuestros productos, nuestro espíritu y valentía, nuestra tradición y la forma en que tratamos a nuestra comunidad y más allá. Lo hacemos de una manera genuina porque realmente creemos que somos una empresa bastante increíble.
