As part of a modernisation process at Avicola Andina, our distributor in Chile, our America team joined forces with our customer Couvoir Ovo and promoted a technology exchange by means of technical visits to Couvoir’s facilities in Quebec, Canada.

New, state of the art hatchery

Dr Alexis Pavez, the Chilean veterinarian in charge of PS farms and hatcheries could see and experience the outstanding results achieved by the new, state of the art hatchery which incorporates a series of new technologies, such as single stage incubation, automation and full climate control with remote access and a reporting system.



Shiftvv from floor to full slat system

Visits were made to rearing and production farms. This informed Avicola Andina that is about to undergo a complete shift from floor to a full slat system with automatic nests and was the perfect occasion to boost their confidence regarding this modernisation process.

Information sharing makes visits successful

Besides the undoubtfully fruitful knowledge acquired, the series of visits were marked by the warm hospitality of the Couvoir Ovo crew, who openly shared all the information Avicola Andina needed. Special thanks to the Board of Couvoir Ovo, as well our colleagues Alvaro Sanchez, Jimmy Aldana, Patrick Poulin and Rene Rivas.
