Danish company exports pig production facilities to Vietnam and Philippines

Danish Farm Concept has signed contracts to supply investors in Vietnam and the Philippines with new turnkey pig production facilities

Considered a global leader in pig production, Denmark is recognised for a production average above 30 weaned piglets per sow. These figures have prompted global producers, especially in Southeast Asia and China, to approach the country’s leading producer Danish Farm Concept for advice and guidance on producing high-quality pork.

“Southeast Asian markets have traditionally relied on small-scale farmers to supply the meat they need. But, with consumer demand in rapid growth, such farms are incapable of producing enough pork of the right quality,” said Bjarne Kornbek Pedersen, the initiator behind Danish Farm Concept and director of one of the participating companies, Danish Farm Design.

The professional pig production facilities that are on the way to Vietnam and the Philippines will be tailored to local needs and conditions. Once in operation, they will both supply safe food to demanding consumers and deliver good returns to investors.

In addition, Danish Farm Concept’s member companies can provide advice, expertise and training to deliver the equipment and technology for a highly efficient operation.

Representing the cooperative expertise of six companies, Danish Farm Concept is the first business enterprise with the capability to deliver the complete Danish model for pig production. The company’s expertise ranges over environmentally-friendly farm designs; genetics for high productivity and top quality breeding animals; biosecurity, nutrition and health; education programmes and pig farm management.
