CRIOLLO HORSE FEED AND SUPPLEMENTS SINCE 2010 FOR YOUR HORSE'S WELL-BEING

Already at the beginning of 2010, we came up with our slogan FOR YOUR HORSE'S WELL-BEING, when we started producing Criollohorse feeds and supplements and that slogan has been the foundation of our operations. We are a small family owned company in Lappeenranta, South-Carelia, and we have produced Criollohorse feeds and supplements since the beginning of 2010. Criollo is a registered trademark and our love of horses got us to develop products that fulfill the dietary needs of a horse efficiently and easily - that's how Criollohorse feeds and supplements came to be.

Yli 50 vuoden hevoskokemuksemme perusteella olemme todenneet, että yksinkertainen ruokinta on myös edullinen, kun tuotteet ovat laadukkaat, eikä hevoselle syötetä mitään turhaa purkeista ja purnukoista.

Criollo feeds and supplements gives your horse comfort in it's life and you also feel comfortable being and playing sports with your healthy horse. Our motto: First take care of your horse's health and after the problems!

Where does Criollo come from?

”Criollo” is self-designed from the logo; the labels, brochures and also the sacks are self-designed. In this way, the products were imprinted with our own hand from the beginning. Even the horse whose image has been used since the beginning in Criollo pruducts is our own Maxi's Maybell (photograph: Tarja Ruotsalainen).

Where does "Criollo" come from? It is a South American, tenacious, small and intelligent horse breed - like our company, a small and tenacious family business. Also Criollo is a a type of cocoa bean from which chocolate is made, which in turn takes everyone to the extremity of wonderful taste pleasures – like our Criollo feeds take your horse!

The entrepreneurs' own horse hobby

Eija on harrastanut hevosia koko ikänsä; setällä oli suomenhevonen, jolla ensimmäistä kertaa pääsi ratsastamaan kolmen vanhana ja ajamaan kärreillä jo neljän vanhana; käynyt pienestä pitäen talleilla ja siitä sitten ratsastuksen pariin ja nyt useamman vuosikymmenen ravipuolella. Montén Suomen mestaruus vuonna 1991 omalla kasvatillaan Falcon Jet on Eijan ikimuistoisin saavutus n. 400 ajamastaan startista. Nyt kilpaa-ajaminen on jäänyt ja ravivalmennus vie enimmän harrastusajan. Eija perusti Suomen Monté-ohjastajat ry:n v. 1990 ja toimi useita vuosia yhdistyksen puheenjohtajana.

With Eija's enthusiasm, her husband Markku is also interested in horses and has also guided a couple of hundred starts.

Lapset Maxi ja Mira ajoivat nuorempana poneilla useamman vuoden, Mira myös montea.
