Maroc Dinde moves into broiler production

Maroc Dinde, Morocco's largest turkey producer, is diversifying into broiler production.

The group has signed an agreement for the development of a new green field hatchery, where Pas Reform's Smart modular, single stage system will be introduced to optimise broiler incubation from day one. The new installation will include SmartSet setters, SmartHatch hatchers, hatchery automation systems and hatchery climate control systems.

The new broiler hatchery will be built in two phases. On completion, the hatchery will have the capacity to produce 600,000 day-old broilers per week.

Owner Mr. Abdelmoulah said this expansion into the broiler sector is a new challenge, and the company anticipates the new hatchery to deliver in line with its ambitious plans.
