Petersime further expands in Russia

Petersime, the leading manufacturer and supplier of incubators and hatcheries worldwide, has established a new Moscow-based subsidiary called Petersime OOO, enabling the company to further expand its activities in the country.

Petersime OOO acts as a sales and service organization, thus increasing local support to Petersime's customers and strengthening Petersime's local distributor Hartmann.

Up to now, Petersime has installed more than 30 different hatchery projects, adding an additional setting capacity of 500 million eggs per year.

"Our expansion in Russia via the Petersime OOO subsidiary fits in our strategy to be present in our key markets and to be close to our customers," said Tom Dewaele, Director at Petersime. "With the creation of Petersime OOO, we confirm our commitment to our Russian customers."

"The establishment of Petersime OOO opens up a unique opportunity to better serve our existing customers and to approach new ones. We are convinced that the innovative Petersime technology will enable Russian hatcheries to further contribute to the growth of the country's poultry industry," said Anna Nemtseva, director of Petersime OOO.
