Sharing experiences, exploiting each other's strengths
The signing ceremony took place recently in Hanover, Germany, witnessed by leaders of the Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Development and Vietnamese Agricultural Counselor to the EU Tran Van Cong.
Speaking at the signing ceremony, Mr. Bernd Meerpohl - President and General Director of Big Dutchman introduced Big Dutchman Group - the world's leading supplier of solutions in poultry and pig farming, including high-tech housing and farm equipment.
Big Dutchman was founded in 1938 and is headquartered in Germany. After 86 years, the group is present on five continents and has offices in more than 100 countries and territories.
Witnessing the signing ceremony were Deputy Minister of Agriculture and Rural Development Phung Duc Tien, Mr. Duong Tat Thang - Director of the Department of Livestock (Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Development), Mr. Tran Van Cong - Agricultural Counselor of Vietnam in the EU.
The Big Dutchman brand is now synonymous with sustainable and innovative livestock equipment and infrastructure for medium and large scale farming. In Asia, Big Dutchman branded solutions have been present for over 30 years with a new and modern regional distribution centre in Klang, Malaysia.
In addition, Big Dutchman also has offices in Thailand, Philippines, Myanmar, Australia, Japan, India and Vietnam.
"During the cooperation process with Hung Nhon Group, we realized that this is a professional and trustworthy agricultural group. In particular, Hung Nhon has a lot of experience, relationships and a deep understanding of the specific business characteristics in Vietnam, especially in the field of livestock. Therefore, we wish to cooperate with Hung Nhon to share experiences and exploit the strengths of each side. From there, we can have more solid steps forward in the future," said Mr. Bernd Meerpohl.
On the side of Hung Nhon Group, Mr. Vu Manh Hung - Chairman of the Board of Directors of the Group also highly appreciated the strengths of Big Dutchman.
"Big Dutchman has nearly 90 years of experience in the livestock sector, strong financial potential and especially international standard barn technology. These are the "necessary and sufficient" factors for Hung Nhon to realize the goal of becoming an agricultural corporation with a green production chain in Vietnam, meeting export standards to the Halal market" - Mr. Hung affirmed.
Joining hands with major partners, realizing the ambition of developing a green livestock chain
Mr. Vu Manh Hung also introduced Hung Nhon Group to the partners present at the signing ceremony. Accordingly, Hung Nhon currently owns 17 member companies and the DHN chain system, with about 1,000 hectares of farms in the Southeast and Central Highlands regions.
Of which, the broiler farm system supplies the market with more than 3 million chickens per year; the laying hen farm system supplies more than 130 million eggs per year; the system of farms raising great-grandparent, great-grandparent, grandparent, parent and international standard commercial pigs with a total output of 14,000 breeding pigs (parents) and 375,000 commercial pigs per year.
The working delegation of the Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Development had a working session with Big Dutchman.
The Chairman of the Board of Directors of Hung Nhon Group emphasized that the most outstanding point of the projects that Hung Nhon is implementing is the strong application of European technology in livestock farming, using the world's top quality vaccines. In particular, the Group is closely cooperating with De Heus Group (Netherlands) to deploy a "green" production chain model in Vietnam.
"One of the key projects of our chain is a series of 12 high-tech agricultural projects in Tay Ninh province with a total investment of nearly VND10,000 billion. The goal by 2030 is that the chain will reach an output of 83 million chickens and broilers for export. Revenue is expected to reach 2 billion USD by 2030," said Mr. Vu Manh Hung.

Speaking at the signing ceremony, Deputy Minister of Agriculture and Rural Development Phung Duc Tien expected that the cooperation between two dedicated and visionary partners would not only bring efficiency to the enterprises themselves, but also contribute more to the Strategy for sustainable agricultural and rural development for the 2021-2030 period, with a vision to 2050.
"Vietnam is an agricultural country with great potential and strengths, but has not been fully exploited due to lack of technology. Therefore, with the presence of Big Dutchman, Vietnamese agriculture will certainly benefit in creating conditions for farmers, farm owners and businesses to access modern, quality equipment at the best prices," Deputy Minister Tien expressed his hope.
With the cooperation of Big Dutchman, livestock farms in the De Heus - Hung Nhon chain meet international standards.
Big Dutchman is the third international corporation to have strategic cooperation with Hung Nhon Group. Previously, Hung Nhon Group signed a MoU with De Heus (Netherlands) to provide animal nutrition solutions and Olmix (France) to provide solutions for vaccines, veterinary medicine, disinfection, etc.
