Investment in poultry housing increasing

The company reports a 20% increase in orders across both sectors for the first 6 months of this year. Within the poultry industry, the growth has been mainly in the organic layer sector.

“We were very busy last year, so this jump in orders on the back of a good12-months’ trading is seen as significant,” said Mike McLaughlin, ARM’s MD.

“The strength of the Euro has helped by making foreign-made poultry houses less competitive and this has also encouraged growth in exports to the Republic of Ireland.”
