Hendrix Genetics B.V.

Hendrix Genetics, headquartered in the Netherlands, is a leading multi-species breeding company with primary activities in laying hens, turkeys, and traditional poultry.

Throughout the globe, parent stock, commercial day-old layer chicks and hatching eggs are produced in large numbers at our own breeder farms and hatcheries, which maintain the highest standards of hygiene and biosecurity. When analyzing your needs, we carefully consider which chicken breed is ideally suited to supply the breeders (parent stock), commercial day-old chicks, or hatching eggs for your market. In this way we can deliver the latest genetic generations of our poultry genetics to the African continent, reduce road and air transport times, reduce transportation costs, and handle large volumes.

Availability, delivery, and full traceability of our products are guaranteed. First quality is at the core of our business, through every stage of our production process we aim for the highest chick quality. A rigorous quality control system is in place to monitor the quality of production by our specialized team of global poultry veterinarians and by governmental agencies in the various countries. Together with our valued customers we define the day-old chick vaccinations and the chick treatments that will be performed in our hatcheries. Truck and flight transportation options are arranged in direct consultation with customer needs and current possibilities. We aim to strive for the best solution in close cooperation to get the best quality parent stock (breeders) and commercial day-old chicks arriving at the poultry farm in the destination country.

With our strong portfolio of leading brands: Babcock, Bovans, DeKalb, Hisex, ISA, Shaver, Hybrid (turkeys), SASSO (traditional poultry), we deliver high-quality animal genetics to support the African  food challenge. Next to our breeds, we also offer technical service and customer support to help our customers in reaching the genetic potential of their poultry breeds. We also offer PRIMA, a free-to-use tool that support egg producers in data insight in their poultry flocks. Hendrix Genetics’ vision for setting the standard for sustainable animal breeding will deliver solutions to help feed the world and build a sustainable future.
