Zambia

Ross Breeders Zambia was incorporated on 1 December 1999. It comprised a grandparent and parent operation in Chongwe, which produces hatching eggs. Land was acquired in 2008 to build a feed mill east of Lusaka and building commenced in June 2009 and in 2014 a new hatchery was commissioned to further increase capacity.

Between 2013 and 2015 another grandparent farm was purchased and additional poultry sites as well as a new hatchery was built, as well as an abattoir on Mimosa Farm. This supplies fresh and frozen chicken products to the retail, wholesale, and quick-service restaurant (QSR) channels. Ross Breeders Zambia supplies broiler day-old chicks, parent day-old chicks, broiler hatching eggs, stock feed and processed chicken products. Parent day-old chicks are exported to African countries including Malawi, Botswana, Senegal, Zimbabwe, Mozambique, the DRC, Angola, Ghana, and Uganda.
