Murdock, NE, March 16, 2015 — Oxbow Animal Health has unveiled a new company logo and new packaging for its complete line of premium hays. The new packaging, first revealed at the Global Pet Expo in Orlando, Florida in early March, will begin entering the market mid-year.
New Oxbow Logo
The new Oxbow logo connects the company’s rich history with its continued growth, evolution, and vision for the future of small animal nutrition and care. Longtime customers of Oxbow will appreciate shared elements between previous logo and new. The new logo retains farm scene elements while depicting a richer, more sprawling landscape. It also incorporates a modified color palette and elements, including a blue sky and multiple shades of green, creating a rolling hay field.
