Doggy AB

Doggy AB chose ProMark as a cost-effective replacement for their old time & attendance system

Doggy AB is the largest manufacturer of food for cats and dogs in Sweden. With more than a century’s experience in the production of animal food, the company successfully operates in the international market – through its wholly owned subsidiary Lantmännen Bozita. Markets outside Sweden and the other Nordic countries include Germany, Russia, Poland and Holland.

Doggy AB markets products under its own brand and private labels in several countries. The company’s head office is in Vårgårda, which is also where the pet food is manufactured. The factory is one of the most modern in Europe.

”People sometimes worry when changes are made to anything which affects salaries, and we had in fact expected some questions to be asked. But instead, the staff hardly needed any assistance and have adopted the system more or less automatically. Everything has gone really well; much better than we expected, actually.”
