We’re in Huntsville, Alabama this week at Aviagen headquarters touring their facilities and meeting with their senior leadership to discuss the future growth of our sector. Our focus is on strengthening Canada’s domestic supply chain and supporting our long-term resilience through strong relationships with global leaders in poultry production, innovation, and research. This work is essential to Canadian food security and sovereignty, and to ensuring our hatching egg producers can continue producing more food here at home for Canadians, now and for the years to come.
