Pradco Outdoor Brands has acquired Ani-Logics Outdoors, a Worthington, MN-based maker of deer nutrition products. Terms were not disclosed.
“I am excited to welcome Ani-Logics to our family of iconic brands,” said Brian Malone, VP/GM of Pradco Outdoor Products Division. “Our focus is to support and grow the existing operation by leveraging proven Ani-Logics and Pradco resources.”
Started in response to the 2012 Epizootic Hemorrhagic Disease (EHD) outbreaks, Ani-Logics develops deer supplements designed to support herd health, promote antler growth and offer attraction and palatability. With this acquisition, Pradco said it “remains committed to continuing these efforts by conducting research and field testing to support the development of wildlife nutritional products.”
The company’s research, warehouse and manufacturing functions will remain in Worthington, MN.
Lee and Tiffany Lakosky, long-time partners of Pradco’s Summit Treestands brand, also work closely with the Ani-Logics brand, creating food plot seed and attractant products known as Crush.
“I am thrilled to continue working with Ani-Logics under its new ownership,” said Lee Lakosky. “We look forward to this expanded partnership as an opportunity for all.”
Pradco Outdoor Brands, a family-owned company and subsidiary of EBSCO Industries, is based in Birmingham, AL. The Pradco Outdoor Products Division includes Summit Treestands, Code Blue Scents and D/Code Scent Elimination, Knight & Hale, Whitetail Institute, Texas Hunter, and Maxxtuff. Pradco is also home to Moultrie/Moultrie Mobile, along with Pradco Fishing, which produces and markets over 20 brands, including Rebel, Yum, Booyah, War Eagle Custom Lures, Lindy, and Bomber.
