Prioskolje Group opens fourth hatchery in cooperation with Pas Reform

Russia's Prioskolje Group will maintain its cooperation with Pas Reform to develop a fourth hatchery complex, which will bring the company's total hatching eggs capacity to 150 million per year.

The new hatchery, which will have a capacity of 60 million eggs, is planned to begin operations at the end of May 2007.

It is the fourth hatchery in Prioskolje Group's integration, and is a part of an investment programme that includes a new feedmill, slaughterhouse, rendering plant, water treatment system and new housing to accommodate both parent stock and broilers.

Prioskolje Group has become one of Russia's largest poultry integrators since the company was founded just over three years ago.
