Eville & Jones, which provides official veterinarians, meat hygiene inspectors, grading and export health certification in English and Welsh abattoirs, has completed the acquisition of the Vorenta Group, which includes HallMark Veterinary and Compliance Services, and Meat and Livestock Commercial Services Ltd (MLCSL).
Eville & Jones said customers would see no changes to the day-to-day delivery of service, which it provides on behalf of the Food Standards Agency.
“Vorenta and E&J are natural partners with shared ambitions and values. This merger accelerates our growth plans and enables us to expand our service offering to both our existing and future customers whilst providing opportunities for our people,” said group chief executive Charles Hartwell.
