Hypor finalises agreement to acquire France Hybrides

Hypor, the pig breeding division of Hendrix Genetics, has finalised the acquisition with France Hybrides from Groupe Glon.

The acquisition of France Hybrides was announced in January this year.

The acquisition is part of Hypor's strategy to have leading positions in significant pork production markets in the world.

Under the terms of agreement, France Hybrides will become a legal part of Hendrix Genetics s.a.s. Distribution activities of France Hybrides products in France will continue through the current network including Groupe Glon / France Genes.

The strong gene pool and market position of France Hybrides as well as the extensive research work in place make this very attractive for our customers, said Dave Libertini, Managing Director of Hypor.

Didier Goupil, Managing Director of France Hybrides, said the joining of Hypor and Hendrix Genetics would open new opportunities for France Hybrides through Hypor's global network.
