De Heus feed output continues growing
Dutch compound feed manufacturer De Heus has reached a milestone by producing more than three million tonnes of complete feed last year.
Production plants of De Heus have been churning out more than 3.03 million tonnes of complete feed in 2009. All markets where De Heus has industrial presence have contributed in a positive way to this result.
Production in The Netherlands grew by nearly 2.2% to 1.91 million tonnes. The growth was realised mainly by autonomous growth.
The establishment of newly built or acquired capacity in South Africa, Vietnam, Czech Republic, Russia and Ethiopia in 2009 will be important in realising these ambitions. There will also be continuing efforts to improve performance in current markets like Poland and the Netherlands.
