Guided by a deep commitment to integrity, stewardship, and service, Mike founded and grew Prime100 into one of Australia’s leading veterinary-recommended pet food companies.

Today, he mentors and invests in a new generation of pet food entrepreneurs, while also dedicating time to ministry, philanthropy, and kingdom-focused initiatives.
