KLN Family Brands is a 3rd generation family-owned business that started in 1964. Together, our companies manufacture a diverse and expanding range of high-quality human and pet food products. At KLN Family Brands, our vision is that “We are a proud people-first company. We are successful because of trust-based relationships and first-rate products for our families and friends. We better the world by caring for others. We challenge. We grow. We inspire.” Some companies have to “fudge the story” a little. Some need the extra “spin” to shine a positive light on themselves. That’s not who we are at KLN Family Brands, and that’s not what we do. We tell the story of our brand – our people, the quality of our products, our spirit & moxie, our tradition, and the way we treat our community & beyond. We do it in a genuine way because we genuinely believe we’re a pretty amazing company.
KLN Family Brands is a company located in Perham, Minnesota that manufactures a diverse and expanding range of human and pet food products that adapt to customer preferences. Three manufacturing companies fall under the KLN Family Brands umbrella: Tuffy’s Pet Foods, Tuffy's Treat Company & Cannery, and Kenny’s Candy & Confections. Whether the products are intended for our families or pets, KLN Family Brands strives to make each and every product exceptional.
What’s in a name? “KLN” are the initials of former CEO Kenny Nelson, one of the founding members of the business. Kenny is the son of Tuffy’s Pet Foods founder, Tuffy Nelson, and the father of current KLN CEO, Charlie Nelson.
We believe that the history and success of KLN Family Brands is a direct result of our commitment to our employees and community. We have always believed that “family” is the most important part of the company’s name. Why? Because it’s family that speaks to who we are: a 3rd generation, family-owned company, producing quality brands & products for families by a team of dedicated employees in a family-friendly community.
