Healthy Farm, one of the leading producers of high quality food products in Russia, has
recently invested in the first Meyn-Ishida poultry processing solution in the Ural region.
With a total capacity of two 6,000 birds per hour processing lines Healthy Farm doubles
her current production capacity to 152,000 birds per day. This increased capacity in
combination with a state-of-the-art multihead weighing and batching line will allow Healthy
Farm to further strengthen their market position. Healthy Farm was previously known as
Ural Broiler.
Meyn will install a complete new processing line and will also extend the existing line
installed by Meyn in 2009. The new universal multihead weighing & batching line from
Ishida will provide a sophisticated solution for all steps in the packaging process. Healthy
Farm’s CEO Mr Evgeny Sergeevich Narukov: “With previous Meyn projects, we already
dramatically reduced labour costs and increased the quality of our final product. Now with
Meyn-Ishida we will also be reducing our give-away and increase product reliability
considerably.” At the moment, Healthy Farm is building additional housing capacity. The
renewed high-tech plant will be running by the end of 2012.
Healthy Farm manages its own broiler breeding facility and parent stock and is market
leader in the Ural region. With the new name, Healthy Farm emphasises its high ecological
compatibility of products and sustainable perspective in doing business. Consumers can
find Healthy Farm products in retailer chains, supermarkets, smaller food shops as well as
in Healthy Farms own sales points. Besides the Ural region, Healthy Farm also focuses on
the Siberian region of Russia. With this investment, Healthy Farm anticipates to future
growth, with export as one of her long-term goals.
Meyn-Ishida combines the highly sophisticated expertise of Meyn in poultry processing,
with the unique know-how and experience in weighing, grading and end-of-line equipment
from Ishida to offer a full range of wall-to-wall solutions. The strategic alliance has already
been awarded several high value international contracts, including fully integrated plants in
Saudi Arabia (Almarai), Russia (Miratorg, Valujki, Tambov), Chile (Ariztia) and Poland.
