Aviagen Parent Stock (PS) customers in Algeria will now be able to source Arbor Acres stock directly from Algeria following the establishment of Arbor Acres Algérie, a Grand Parent (GP) distributor owned by the Kerbouche Group.
Located at Ain Fezza, close to Tlemcen in Western Algeria, the company is investing significantly in new, state-of-the-art facilities. There is currently one farm completed which has already accepted the first delivery of AA GP stock, while three more farms are under construction and due to be completed in 2011. There is also a new hatchery being built, which will be ready in the first quarter of next year, with the first PS expected in April 2011.
Alain Silvin, Sales and Technical Manager for Arbor Acres, said: “Placing the Arbor Acres GP stock in Algeria is the next logical step for the industry given the success AA products have seen at breeder and broiler level. The Kerbouche Group is an excellent partner and will be able to ensure a consistent supply of top quality parent stock, as well as dedicated, timely and relevant support, to customers across the whole country.”
