Camon joins Croci: the new Italian pet group is born

From today the Italian and international pet industry can count on a new reference player.
The Mindful Capital Partners fund, already owner of Croci, has completed the acquisition of Camon, thus creating a new group that presents itself on the market with all the solidity and reliability of 2 leading companies in the pet sector.
Roberto Canazza, founder and CEO of Camon, will join the new team as an investor, maintaining an important role in the operations management of this new company.

Little more than two years after the entry of the Mindful Capital Partners fund, the Croci Group, the Italian company active in the pet accessories and aquarium market, completed the merger with 100% of the share capital of Camon.
Founded in 1985 by Roberto Canazza in Albaredo d'Adige (Verona), Camon is specialized in the production and distribution of high-quality products for pets, including in its catalog thousands of items, that cover all the possible needs of dogs and cats, with specific attention to the segments of snacks, functional food, complementary foods and products for their care, beauty and well-being of pets.

A SYNERGY TO FACE NEW CHALLENGES AND SCENARIOS TOGETHER.
With the conclusion of the negotiation, the new reality born today brings together 2 historic and established companies such as Camon and Croci, a Group whose synergy aims to be more than the sum of the individual entities.
Camon's entry will bring the Croci Group's turnover to a figure of around 85 million euros, with the aim that the new company can quickly reach a revenue of 100 million euros.
For Camon this collaboration represents a further step in the path of affirmation on the market to increasingly become a reference player, strengthening its presence at a national level and expanding its relevance also at a European level in the world of accessories and pet care.

Anyone who shares his life with a pet knows that the holiday period can be a source of anxiety and stress for them, especially due to the loud noises and unusual situations that our four-legged friends might experience.
To effectively support the well-being of dogs and cats even during these moments, Camon offers AEquilibriAVet, a product line featuring a variety of items enriched with valuable ingredients and plant extracts that can help managing excessive or inappropriate behaviors.

AEQUILIBRIAVET IN TABLETS AND PASTE.
During periods of potential heightened tension for our pets, complementary feeding may help them keep their responses to external stimuli within physiological limits without sedative effects.
For this reason, AEquilibriAVet Tablets and AEquilibriAVet Oral Suspension were developed. These complementary foods for dogs and cats contain Lemon Balm, Valerian, Ginger, and Tryptophan, offering a relaxing effect and helping to reduce anxiety.
Their natural composition makes them effective and suitable for preventive use as well, starting a few weeks before events that could potentially cause stress in the animal.

AEQUILIBRIA COLLAR AND DIFFUSER: SPECIFIC SUPPORTS FOR CATS.
The AEquilibriAVet line also includes two products designed specifically for felines: the AEquilibriA Collar and the AEquilibriA Diffuser (with refill). Both help reducing stress and anxiety thanks to Nepeta Cataria extract, a plant-based substance that naturally calms cats.
Additionally, the AEquilibriA Diffuser is now available in a new 45ml packaging.
