For those only getting to know the ARKequine, here’s what you need to know.

ARKequine – A SCIENTIFICALLY-DRIVEN EQUINE COMPANY

We are an innovative, solutions-driven business tailored to meet the needs of the equine community and its success both on and off the field. Whether you are a breeding establishment, professional producer, racehorse trainer or leisure rider, we have a broad spectrum of products to maximise your horse’s potential.

We had a chat with Kirsty McCann the Equine Nutritional Manager of ARKequine in the buildup to the RDS. We chatted about the ARKequine journey and their incredible growth, their new acquisition… Bert House Stud and their plans for the future.

More about that later but for this piece, we will focus on the RDS and their announcement made last week in an exclusive video interview with us here at The Grassroots Gazette and shot at Naas Racecourse as they sponsored the last race of the day, the Bert House Stud Handicap, where Richard Young the owner of ARKequine announced their new feed range partnership with ACME.

Chatting with Kirsty, you could feel her positivity about the week ahead at the RDS with their stand and the excitement across the team for the new feed range launch and the opportunity to engage and chat with new people from across the equine community.

One of the great points was Kirsty saying “We are super excited to be back again for a second year at the Prestigious RDS Show and to be BRINGING SCIENCE TO THE STABLE. This year, we’re bringing an RDS exclusive with the announcement of our new feed range partnership with ACME”.

Throughout the chat we heard about some of the brilliant campaigns, offers and competitions ARKequine have running throughout the Dublin Horse Show:

Kirsty continued, “The pharmaceutical-grade feed range is an exciting launch for us and will open new markets here in Ireland, and overseas. At the show, we’re inviting people to come and talk to us about this new complete feed range for all life stages and take samples from our Pick & Mix dispensary station. We’ve doubled the stand size to include a replica horse stable, complete with water drinker and hay, to showcase our stable hygiene products with our partners Aquatabs, the world’s No1 water purification system, and NUVEQ, hay steamers that can withstand everyday stable life”.

Throughout our chat Kirsty went on to mention the campaigns and special offers running throughout the show. “Back by popular demand is our Challenge the Vet sessions. We’re also giving back to competitors and riders and are offering a Competitor Care pack from 8am- 9 am every day, as well as running Happy Hour every day 4-5 pm offering exclusive end-of-day bargains, details will be posted daily on our socials.

It is safe to say that ARKequine is one of the must visit stands this week at The Dublin Horse Show.
