Protein in Europe
with comments or questions
Our protein business in Europe is a leading supplier and innovator of chicken products for retail, food service and food manufacturing customers. Together with our employees, customers and partners, we work each day to create a sustainable food supply and build stronger communities.
- We operate further processing facilities in the U.K and France and have a sales office in the Netherlands.
- In 2017, through a newly established joint venture with Faccenda Foods in the U.K, Cargill is an equal shareholder in Avara Foods focused on fresh chicken, turkey and duck.
- In 2018 we expanded our business into Poland with the acquisition of Konspol, one of Poland's leading value-added food companies, providing an array of products in the chilled convenience, frozen and cold cut categories.
Every day, consumers are expecting more from their food. Innovation is at the core of what we do. We identify our customers’ needs and develop products to satisfy their desires. As a leading supplier and innovator we believe nourishing the world means keeping all protein options on the table. We have the capabilities, expertise and commitment to deliver the high-quality foods they’re seeking. Through our strong partner network, a joint venture and our own operations, we manage the traceability, quality, supply chain, risk management and technical needs of our customers.
Our poultry business is committed to conducting all aspects of operations with absolute integrity. For us, sustainability is a comprehensive endeavor that stretches from farm to fork. We are working to minimize the impacts of our operations and supply chains, all while respecting the animals in our care and enriching the communities where we live and work.
