The right mixture is what does it: Havens is the official horse feed supplier of the FEI European Championships Aachen 2015, which are to be staged in the Emperor’s City from August 11-23. The international equestrian sport will meet one of Europe’s leading manufacturers of horse feed at these prestigious Championships. A perfect symbiosis: Because all of the horses competing in the five disciplines jumping, dressage, reining, driving and vaulting will be fed with high-quality pellets and muesli – around the clock. “After the good experiences we made during the World Equestrian Games in the year 2006 and at the annual CHIO Aachen event, we are delighted that we are now going to be part of such a fantastic event as the European Championships. This partnership underpins our aim of advancing into becoming the biggest horse feed manufacturer in Europe,” stated Joris Kaanen, CEO of Havens Pferdefutter. Havens have been the official feed suppliers of the CHIO Aachen since 2004. In the meantime, the horse feed manufacturer also lends its name to the “HAVENS Pferdefutter Prize” as the sponsor of this dressage competition, a Grand Prix CDI, which is staged during the World Equestrian Festival.

Frank Kemperman, Chairman of the organisers of the European Championships, the Aachen-Laurensberger Rennverein e. V., is very pleased about the continued collaboration: “We have working closely together with the company Havens for years. The participants of the CHIO know that we provide them with top feed products year after year. They can now look forward to the accustomed quality during the European Championships.”

The Dutch feed manufacturers Havens, whose headquarters are in Maashees, look back on over 150 years of experience, the foundation for the company was laid in 1845. Havens Pferdefutter sells its products, which are exclusively made out vegetable and 100% natural raw materials, in more than 50 countries worldwide. All of Havens fodder mixes comply with the current GMPs and HACCP guidelines for the production of fodder, which guarantee the high quality of animal feed. The European Championships in Aachen are a further milestone in the company history of Havens. And once again during this major event that runs for two weeks, the needs of the horses, who require a high supply of energy and vitamins, will be paramount: “The European Championships 2015 offers us the perfect podium to promote our top performance feeds to Europe’s best riders and breeders” added Kaanen.
