As a member of the Export team for a global poultry breeding company, I get to directly see the vital role we play in helping to put food on the tables of families around the world. That is an amazing feeling, and makes me excited to come to work each day to communicate and collaborate with all of the people involved in this amazing process.

I like working with a diverse group of really smart people who inspire me to excel. Every day I have the privilege of exchanging ideas with people who have achieved excellence in their areas of expertise. The collective experience and energy here is incredible. I am passionate about my company, our birds, and the role we play in helping to feed an ever-expanding global population.

Living and working in Bangkok, I have the best of both worlds. Bangkok is one of the world’s most modern cities, yet it is full of history and culture, as well as people from diverse backgrounds. Aviagen, the company I am proud to work for, mirrors Asia’s diversity, by offering the industry’s broadest range of poultry breeding stock to meet a variety of growing conditions, and to satisfy a spectrum of consumer preferences.

Animal welfare and the sustainability of our planet have always been near and dear to me, and it’s thrilling to be able to work for a company with my shared values, where I can contribute to these great causes every single day.

Long before I joined the Aviagen team, I knew that the name Aviagen was synonymous with quality, and I couldn’t be prouder to be part of an organization that puts quality first in providing the world’s poultry producers with healthy chicks with the highest standards of welfare and biosecurity.

Throughout my more than four decades at Aviagen Albertville, I’ve seen year-on-year improvement as a result of relentless field testing, coupled with innovation brought about by the meeting of great minds. It has been an exciting ride, and I look forward to seeing what the next decade brings for our customers and our company.

I’m so proud to be a citizen of the colorful, culturally rich and diverse country that is India, and also to work for a company that cares about its people and provides them, no matter what the gender, to grow and fulfil their dreams. Among the country’s chicken meat producers, the Ross 308 AP is an extremely popular bird, and our customers are seeing record-breaking performance here, which makes it all the more satisfying to be part of this company.

The Turkey, Middle East and Africa (TMEA) region is perhaps one of the most dynamic, diverse and rapidly growing in the world, which makes serving our customers in this area particularly rewarding. I love traveling and working with people with different nationalities, languages and cultures, and it is gratifying to work for a company that endeavors to implement continuous improvements that, in the end, benefit TMEA poultry producers and the communities they serve.

As a global trade compliance analyst, I make sure the process of shipping our precious birds to customers all around the world follows the myriad laws of the importing and exporting countries. I love collaborating with diverse and wonderful people who all have an interest in making sure our high-quality chicks reach their final destination safely

I enjoy living and working in the beautiful small town of Albertville, with its strong sense of community, and surrounded by picturesque lakes and rivers. It is rewarding to have a career at Aviagen Albertville, knowing the research and development we do each day has a ripple effect on improving bird performance, health, welfare and sustainability for our company and the entire poultry industry.

I love living in New Zealand and working for Aviagen, where I feel I’m truly making a difference in providing current and future generations with a sustainable source of nutrition. Working for Aviagen, I can see where it all begins, with the primary breeder. We have the responsibility and the honor to make a positive impact on the entire food chain.
