On Tuesday, June 5th Meyn Food Processing Technology officially opened its new international headquarters. The state-of-the-art headquarters and manufacturing facility in Oostzaan, The Netherlands, is developed to strengthen Meyn’s position as global leader in poultry processing solutions. With an impressive loud bang on a 2-meter-wide Japanese drum, the international head quarters were announced officially opened.

In order to express its involvement in society, environment and sustainability, Meyn donated chicken to all 27,500 clients of the Dutch Food Bank. Over 22,000 kilos in 70,000 portions of chicken were presented to Clara Sies, founder of the Dutch Food Bank which celebrates its 10th year anniversary.

The generous gift was handed over in the presence of international guests, local officials and the full staff of 600 employees of Meyn in the Netherlands.

In his opening speech Han Defauwes, President and CEO of Meyn, comments, “Meyn is global leader in poultry processing solutions. We have successfully developed our services to encompass the entire poultry processing value chain, providing market leading efficiency to the industry. With CTB as a recent new owner, we will be able to continue our successful strategy to further build our leading position in the poultry processing industry.
