Aviagen specialists met with Pole Alimentos teams in Uberlândia for tailored on-site discussions

CAMPINAS, Brazil – Aviagen^® Brazil launched the first In-Company Connection program of 2026, engaging with valued customer Pole Alimentos in Uberlândia, Minas Gerais, from Jan. 26 to 28. The session brought together 25 professionals on site for an in-depth exchange focused on poultry management and data analysis.

Pole Alimentos: Scale, experience and breeder performances

Part of the Granja Regina Group, Pole Alimentos is the largest poultry processor in the state of Ceará and has an established strategic working relationship with Aviagen. Since beginning its breeder operations, the company has used Ross^® 308 AP breeders exclusively for fertile egg production, requiring close alignment in flock management to fully realize genetic potential.

Customized solutions

The three-day agenda was designed to combine theory with on-farm reality. Activities included visits to rearing and production farms, followed by data review sessions.

The program concluded with team-focused sessions addressing key productivity topics, including optimal male conformation, male management with a focus on fertility, and the identification of critical factors within production processes.

To support the program, Aviagen brought together a multidisciplinary team. In addition to Amancio, on-farm activities included Regional Supervisors Tiago Gurski and Mauro Piotto. Strategic discussion and data review sessions also included Commercial Manager Luiz Mansano; Regional Sales Supervisor Edson Carvalho; and Regional Supervisor Viviane Ruviero.

In-Company Connection: Bringing management expertise to the farm

Launched in 2024, the Aviagen In-Company Connection series reflects the company’s ongoing efforts to visit poultry producers across Brazil, sharing practical insights focused on flock health, animal welfare, sustainability and performance.

According to Aviagen Brazil Regional Supervisor Antonio Amancio, the format allows teams to focus on each customer’s real priorities rather than following a fixed agenda: “By adapting each visit to the customer’s specific needs, we can focus on what delivers practical results and address day-to-day challenges.”

The initiative reflects Aviagen’s commitment to maintaining a close, on-site presence with customers. For Aviagen Brazil Services Manager Rodrigo Tedesco, it helps ensure that progress in genetics is matched by progress in flock management: “Being on site allows us to align concepts and fine-tune details that make a real difference in production results, supporting efficient production in an increasingly demanding market.”
