What is the export share in<br />
your total sales?<br />
Acceleration of exports in Turkey’s<br />
poultry industry and international<br />
trade of chicken meat no longer passes<br />
among the big name, Şenpiliç also<br />
raises its export figures. Currently<br />
exporting 10% of our production, we<br />
export over 30 thousand tons annually<br />
to Iraq, Libya, Russia, Georgia, Africa,<br />
Far East, Gulf countries and Turkic Republics.<br />
Are your products halal<br />
certified?<br />
For the customers who demand ritual<br />
slaughter of meat, requiring halal<br />
certification, is strictly supervised in<br />
Senpiliç slaughterhouses and exports<br />
are made predominantly to Libya, Iran,<br />
Iraq Africa and Azerbaijan. We have all<br />
documents that authorize our company<br />
to export to the EU, Russian Federation<br />
and Saudi Arabia.<br />
We always pay great attention in every<br />
stage from production to the sale<br />
point to provide healthy nutrition for<br />
families.<br />
What are your plans for 2019?<br />
We continue with our growth for further<br />
contributing to our country and<br />
our sector, and strategically developing<br />
ourselves with smart integration.<br />
We are realizing our most recent 400<br />
million TL investment at Kadirli, Osmaniye.<br />
The increase in our export<br />
momentum, the proximity of the region<br />
to maize which is used as the raw<br />
material for feed, and the logistics advantages<br />
both in domestic market and<br />
export have been influential in choosing<br />
this location. In Kadirli, we are<br />
planning to establish a slaughterhouse<br />
with a capacity of 450,000 pieces/day,<br />
as well as a feed plant with an annual<br />
production capacity of 579,500 metric<br />
tons in the first stage. This investment<br />
will be followed with hatcheries and<br />
breeding farms as a requirement of<br />
integrated facility. The total amount of<br />
investment will reach to 400 million<br />
TL. Our Kadirli investment will generate<br />
an ecosystem at a radius of 200<br />
kilometers. We will make agreements<br />
with 840 farms and provide a direct<br />
employment to 3,500 people. As Şenpiliç,<br />
we will continue to grow with<br />
our producers and business partners.<br />
And our Kadirli investment will have<br />
a positive contribution to our steady<br />
growth.<br />
