Petersime has equipped the two new hatcheries, a layer and a broiler hatchery, of the Moroccan company Groupe Casa Grains constructed in the Rhamna area, 50 kilometres north of Marakkech.

The layer hatchery, which was commissioned in 2013, is now equipped with 12 Conventional S576 setters and nine Conventional H192 Cleanway hatchers, all of them Vision-controlled. At this moment, eight additional setters and two hatchers are being shipped to the hatchery for installation at the beginning of 2014. Eventually, the layer hatchery will be equipped with a total of 24 setters and 18 hatchers.

The broiler hatchery, also constructed in 2013, houses 20 Conventional S576 setters and 18 Conventional H192 Cleanway hatchers.

Petersime also supplied FocusLink™ software as well as HVAC equipment to both hatcheries.

According to Jean Marino, local representative of Petersime distributor Cidape in Morocco, the client opted for Petersime because of the high quality equipment with maximum performance.

Casa Grains, founded in 2003 and based in Casablanca, Morocco, is an important group with mainly feed mills and a chain of pastry shops.
