GFS was born in 2019 by a high-quality team of three veterinarians and one animal scientist, the company has more than 35 years of experience by the founders.

In response to continuous growth and high demand, GFS began expanding its manufacturing facilities at the end of 2022 to support its growth and continue serving the animal nutrition market. In 2023 with an expanded portfolio that now includes so many products beyond the fiber line, the company changed its name to GFS – Global Feed Solutions, reflecting its evolution and expansion in the market.
