Single source solutions, training and customer care: a recipe for success These are exciting times! North America’s poultry industry is changing, with hatchery expansions, new projects and awareness of the importance of the hatchery in the supply chain gaining momentum. We see field performance data showing faster payback times on investment: a factor that has encouraged many leading poultry companies to plan and build for the future. And when they do invest, these companies are looking for an integrated approach that combines the most advanced incubation technology, climate control and hatchery automation with training and outstanding levels of after-sales support, to maximise results and reduce labour. Against this backdrop, our company has truly consolidated the strengths of both NatureForm and Pas Reform, to become a serious force in the North American hatchery market. We have worked hard to refine our solutions-based approach and improve performance. And the results show.

Selection by Koch Foods for two large projects has placed us among the leaders in our industry. Archers’ new layer operation in Canada has delivered extremely good results in terms of chick uniformity and quality. And on the broiler front, we have seen House of Raeford’s 18 month old operation in Monetta, South Carolina, steadily reduce first week mortality to reach #1 in the Agri Stats rankings. These exceptional results are not only due to excellent equipment design, performance and innovation. They are also the result of dedicated follow up and service orientation, key features of the SmartCare™ programme we launched three years ago, and by a continuing commitment to train people – our own and our customers’ – to maximise their knowledge and capabilities.

of fully integrated hatchery solutions. It’s a road that our customers have shown us they want to travel with us - and we are privileged to share their journeys. 2018 is shaping up to be another record year for NatureForm and Pas Reform in North America – and we look forward to meeting you along the way! Until next time,

The stories featured in this edition of Natureform Times tell of enthusiasm and confidence in our strategy to be a genuinely single source supplier – the only one in the world –
