IB Group has chosen Royal Pas Reform as its partner for their multi-location hatchery expansion program across the Indian sub-continent. State-of-the-art installations will feature single-stage incubators, fully integrated climate-control systems and complete hatchery automation – making them some of the most modern facilities in India.

IB Group AEPL, which is based in Rajnandgaon, Chattisgarh, believes that adopting a single-stage incubation process – giving superior post-hatch performance, in terms of growth, mortality and feed conversions – is pivotal to producing high-qulity broiler chicks.

 “IBG’s ambition is to play a major role in the future growth of the Indian poultry industry,” said Bahadur Ali, founder and managing director of IB Group. “During the course of 2020, we made a long-term strategic plan with our team, which needed a multiple-location expansion for our hatchery operations.”

He continued, “It was an obvious step for us to go for single-stage, fully automated hatcheries technology. Choosing Royal Pas Reform – the world’s leading single-stage incubation and integrated incubation-project specialist – was therefore the logical choice for us.”

Bouke Hamminga, director of international sales and business development for Royal Pas Reform, commented, “We are delighted that IB Group – a leading technology driven poultry company in India – has chosen to work with us to deliver its ambitious plans. I am sure that, as a global integrated hatchery solutions supplier, we can prove to be a key partner for decades to come.”
