Turkeys, chickens, ducks, fattened ducks… the range of poultry raised by Eureden producers is vast.
Upstream, technicians and veterinarians specializing in poultry provide daily support to farmers in monitoring their production.
Downstream, the market opportunities with industrial clients are diversified. LDC, the leading poultry company in Europe, and Galliance are our main partners.
Committed to animal welfare
Our cooperative continues its efforts to promote animal welfare across all three production sectors (chickens, turkeys, and ducks) . To achieve this, we work closely with our customers (downstream partners) and farmers.
Our egg and turkey producer organizations are developing a partnership with Welfarm , a global farm animal protection association, with the aim of moving towards even more responsible production and respect for the animal.
We have implemented an action plan to increase access to natural light, reduce stocking density, and improve environmental enrichment. In response to customer requests, we have developed turkey farming in buildings equipped with outdoor runs. This project, which began in May 2022, involves an ambitious financial plan led by the producers’ group, totaling €2.5 million.
Eureden does not own a slaughterhouse or chicken processing facilities, and we only produce what our poultry industry customers request. Therefore, we are ready to meet the various market demands and, in particular, to enable our customers who have committed (or will commit) to complying with the ECC (European Chicken Commitment) criteria to fulfill their commitments by 2028.
Our aim, as a responsible player, is to follow market developments and meet societal expectations , while ensuring the sustainability of farms and the accessibility of our products for consumers.
