Pet Food Experts Inc. has acquired the operating assets of Northpoint Trading Co.

This acquisition expands the territory of Pet Food Experts into Washington, Oregon, Montana and Idaho. The company will distribute food and supplies from their warehouse in Fife.

“The Pacific Northwest is a great market for strong independent pet retailers and is in need of a strong, independent‐focused distributor. We are thrilled to expand our services to the West Coast,” said Michael Baker, president of Pet Food Experts.

Deb Wilson has also been hired as the General Manager at Northpoint and the Pet Food Experts team.  She has over 28 years of independent pet industry experience on the West Coast.

“Deb’s deep knowledge of the region and relationships with both vendor partners as well as independent retailers is exactly what we were looking for to lead our team,” said Baker.

“Pet Food Experts is a perfect fit to carry on the Northpoint tradition of supporting independent pet retailers and its focus on Champion Petfoods,” said Craig Silver, founder of Northpoint Trading Co.
