Extruded Pellet Products

Research & Development

J.R. Short is one of the leading pellet producers in the world. We make pellets from a wide variety of natural grains and ingredients in many creative shapes and sizes.

The entire J.R Short team works closely with our customers to provide tailor made nutritional, textural and channel oriented solutions. Our internal R&D team has been a key element in our growth and the growth of our customers over the last two decades, bringing 22 new products to commercial launch in 2007. We offer a unique pilot plant facility and are actively planning to build a new innovation center.

We take pride in the response time and innovation available to you from our R&D team. Just help us understand the characteristics you want in the finished product - nutrition, whole or multi-grain, texture, size, flavor, expansion methods - and we will do our best to develop and produce exactly what you are looking for.
