## About

Based in the United Kingdom, Mootral SA specializes in innovative feed supplements that enhance livestock health, productivity, and sustainability, particularly focusing on methane reduction in cattle through natural additives.Mootral SA, founded in 2018, operates from Abertillery, UK, providing specialized feed supplements for livestock. The company was established by Chris Kantrowitz and Thomas Hafner and has completed four deals to date. In December 2023, Mootral raised USD 20 mn in a Series B funding round led by King Philanthropies, with participation from several other investors including Lowercarbon Capital and Earthshot Ventures. This round represented the total amount raised by the company.Mootral's primary products include Enterix™, a natural feed additive that reduces methane emissions from cattle while promoting health and productivity, and Xaloo™, a diverse line of feed solutions aimed at improving gut health in monogastric animals such as poultry and piglets. These products utilize a proprietary blend of phytogenics to enhance nutrient absorption and immune responses, catering to dairy and beef farmers as well as monogastric producers, predominantly in Europe and North America.Mootral earns revenue primarily through direct B2B sales of its feed supplements to agricultural producers. Pricing is based on standard market rates, with bulk purchase agreements to facilitate favorable pricing. Additionally, the company engages in partnerships that may include subscription models for regular supply, ensuring consistent revenue streams while promoting sustainable practices in farming.Following the recent Series B funding of USD 20 mn raised in December 2023, Mootral plans to accelerate its operational management and development. The funding will support the launch of new product lines and initiatives aimed at expanding into new markets, particularly targeting North America and parts of Asia by 2025. This strategic focus aims to leverage growing demand for sustainable agricultural solutions in these regions.
