Ross Breeders Zambia was incorporated on 1 December 1999. It comprised of a Breeder farm and broiler hatchery in Lusaka and a parent operation in Chongwe.
In May 2003 we commissioned our grandparent breeder operation. As an appointed Aviagen Ross distributor, we import the grandparent day old chicks from the United Kingdom and place them at our grandparent sites to produce the Ross 308 parent stock day old chicks These supply our own parent requirements as well as giving us the ability to supply other parent customers with their breeding requirements, both within Zambia and the region.
In July 2009 we commissioned our first animal stockfeed mill in Lusaka, which produces all our breeder and broiler feed requirements and supplies stockfeed to external customers throughout Zambia and some exports into neighbouring countries.
In 2014 a new broiler hatchery was commissioned at our breeder farm in Chongwe which, together with the expansion of our parent sites substantially increased our broiler day old chick and hatching egg production.
In 2015 our grandparent farm in Mazabuka was commissioned, closely followed by our Supreme chicken processing plant in Lusaka in 2016 which supplies fresh and frozen chicken products to the Retail, Wholesale, and Food Service channels. In addition to our own broiler farms we have an active outgrower program to produce the broilers required for the abattoirs daily production.
In 2020 we commissioned another stock feed mill in the Copperbelt province which supplies feed locally and has centralized distribution of processed chicken into this area from our distribution center which is also located there.
Ross Breeders Zambia currently produces broiler day-old chicks, parent day-old chicks, broiler hatching eggs, stock feed and processed chicken products. Parent day-old chicks are exported to the Central Africa region.
Our retail division has grown over the years to include 36 depots and over 100 reseller outlets that retail day old chicks, feed and processed chicken across the country.
