France Poultry was created in May 2018 with the purchase of Doux's Export chicken slaughterhouse, and its head office, located in Châteaulin (Finistère).
France Poultry owns the Doux and Suprême brands for the countries of the Arabian Peninsula (Saudi Arabia, United Arab Emirates, Qatar, Kuwait, Oman, Bahrain and Yemen), to which it exports 90% of its production.
France Poultry is a 100% subsidiary of the Saudi Arabian group Abdulllah A. Almunajem Sons Co., a large group diversified in particular in the food industry through its subsidiary Almunajem Foods.
Together with the Brittany Regional Council and leading manufacturers in the poultry sector, France Poultry holds a 40.5% stake in Yer Breizh.
Created at the same time as France Poultry to ensure the autonomy of its poultry supply, Yer Breizh owns the assets of the upstream (hatchery, feed factory, breeding farms) and ensures the relationship with 150 independent breeders under contract. Together, these breeders have around 320,000 m2 of poultry farms and have an annual production capacity of around 120,000 tonnes of live poultry.
