SYDNEY, AUSTRALIA– JUNE 2011 – DALTON ID announced today their Acquisition of 100% of the shareholding of DROVERS Ay-One Pty Ltd, one of the key suppliers of ID products to the Australian Livestock industry. DROVERS AY ONE Pty. Ltd. was established in 1986 and by 1995 was the major supplier of tail tags to Australian Cattle Producers. Drovers’ product range has grown over the years to include a wide range of livestock ID products including NLIS tags for cattle and sheep, management and tail tags. The business also incorporates one of Australia few remaining Bronze foundries for freeze and fire brand production.
“Renowned for their excellent customer service and product support we believe DROVERS experienced team combined with DALTON products and production processes will produce a winning combination.” Said Daniel Brierley, Global Sales Director for Dalton ID and former Managing Director of Dalton Australia. Both Jim Norris and Kate Murphy, the current proprietors, will remain with the business as Technical and General Manager respectively. “DROVERS produce Australia’s only “EZ Read” NLIS EID cattle tag with a flag and Dalton’s Global buying power will now enable us to offer the very lowest prices to our customers” said Jim Norris.
Daltontags were previously distributed by Gallagher Australia. DALTON ID and GALLAGHER AUSTRALIA announced in February that their distribution arrangement in the Australian and New Zealand markets would be ending. “We’re delighted to be producing Dalton’s full range of tags” said Kate Murphy. “Gallagher Australia has been a great help and have worked closely with our team to ensure a smooth transfer of operational functions. Stock and production facilities are now in place in our newly refurbished Printing and Distribution centre. Our product range still includes a wide variety of NLIS tags, Management tags and the new No Snag tag range, light weight sheep EID and tissue sampling DNA tags”.
