New retail outlet for HVS Animal Health in Gleno, Co Antrim

Dairyside Stores is owned and managed by Sandra McDowell.

She commented: “We are delighted to be working with HVS in such a proactive manner. The company’s product range is of a very high quality and is already in strong demand throughout the Dairyside Stores’ catchment area.”

The new arrangement kicked-in at the beginning of the year and follows-on from the recent retirement of Sammy Wright, a long time representative for HVS in the East Antrim area.

Sandra added:“Demand is currently very strong for the HVS range of pre calving minerals. The East Antrim area is home to a wide selection of dairy, beef and sheep farms.

“We want to build on all of these business opportunities during the period ahead.”

Paul Elwood, from HVS, was a recent visitor to Dairyside Stores.

“We are looking forward to the opportunity of working closely with Sandra and her staff,” he said.

“Dairyside Stores is very well placed to help further build the HVS name in one of Northern Ireland most important livestock production regions.

“Dairy, beef and sheep farmers are very aware of the role that bespoke mineral and vitamin packages can play in improving the livestock of their stock.

“The HVS team, in tandem with staff at Dairyside Stores, will be available at all times to provide the advice that livestock farmers need in this regard.”
