New Manufacturing Halls and Offices for Meyn Polska<br />

Meyn Food Processing Technology B.V.<br />

A total of 10375 sqm of<br />

production space and nearly<br />

2000 sqm of office building<br />

was officially handed over<br />

to Meyn Polska on 13 June<br />

2017. The company, based<br />

in Lebork / Pomerania since<br />

1996, has been part of Meyn<br />

Food Processing Technology<br />

BV since 2007. Meyn is one of the world 's largest manufacturers of poultry<br />

processing solutions. The Polish facilities specialize in the manufacture of<br />

machinery for live bird arrival systems, as well as parts and accessories for<br />

other equipment that are later assembled at Meyn's Dutch headquarters.<br />

The expansion project was<br />

delivered on time and within<br />

budget, taking just eleven months<br />

from start to finish. From an initial<br />

6000 m 2 of manufacturing footprint,<br />

Meyn is proud to have developed into<br />

one of the region's largest and most<br />

important employers.<br />

"Following this extension we are<br />

ready for the future," commented<br />

Dariusz Karaś, Managing Director of<br />

Meyn Poland. "The new halls are not<br />

yet equipped to their full production<br />

capacity, but much of the machinery<br />

is already in place. We still have plans<br />

to expand our portfolio and integrate<br />

test systems for our machines. The<br />

poultry industry is still growing<br />

strongly, and we are growing with it<br />

while setting ambitious future goals. "<br />

The new production space was<br />

officially opened at a ribbon-cutting<br />

ceremony that took place at exactly<br />

1:16 pm in the presence of Victor<br />

A. Mancinelli, Chairman and CEO of<br />

the US parent company CTB, Inc.,<br />

Mrs. Joanna Wolska, Global Director<br />

Marketing and Product Management<br />

and Dariusz Karaś. The ceremony<br />

was performed to the applause of<br />

visitors from the Dutch headquarters<br />

and all staff from Meyn Poland.<br />

On the Saturday before the opening,<br />

a Family Day was held so that the<br />

proud owners could present the<br />

new facilities to family members<br />

and friends. On 12 June, Meyn's<br />

suppliers had the opportunity to<br />

inspect and celebrate the new<br />

development. The official opening<br />

on 13 June was reserved for<br />

Meyn's customers, who attended<br />

in large numbers to witness Meyn<br />

take this important step into the<br />

future, Customers also took the<br />

opportunity to discuss trends and<br />

future technologies with the Meyn<br />
