Calcialiment[1][2][3] is an animal feed producer based in Brittany which started as a family business during three generations and became part of Vitfoss and DLG, one of the biggest premix producers in Europe.

Vitfoss and DLG are both companies in the agricultural industry, even if the origins of Calcialiment go back to a long process of industrial revolution undertaken in family watchmaking since the first generation of watchmakers represented by Théophile Joseph Lognoné born July 10, 1869, and died February 4, 1920, at the age of 50.

The reconversion of watchmaking micro-techniques has made it possible to use crushers to develop new biotechnologies from marine products such as shellfish.

Vitfoss is a Danish company that specializes in the development and production of high-quality vitamin and mineral premixes for animal feed. Their premixes are designed to meet the specific nutritional needs of different types of animals, including pigs, poultry, cattle, and aquaculture. Vitfoss also provides technical support and expertise to customers to help them optimize their feed formulations and production processes.[4]

DLG (Dansk Landbrugs Grovvareselskab) is also a Danish company that operates in the agricultural sector.[5] DLG's main activities include the production and distribution of animal feed, crop protection products, seeds, fertilizers, energy products, and other agricultural inputs. DLG also provides advisory and logistical services to farmers and other customers to help them improve their productivity and profitability. In addition, DLG operates a network of agricultural retail stores throughout Denmark and other parts of Europe.[6]

Name and vision

Contraction of Calcium and Feeding in French (Aliment), Calcialiment appears to be a brand name of a nutritional supplement for livestock animals, particularly cows. The supplement is designed to provide additional calcium and other nutrients to support the health and productivity of the animals.

Calcium is an important mineral for cows, as it is necessary for proper bone development, muscle function, and milk production.

Calcialiment supplements are typically added to the animals' feed to ensure they are getting the necessary nutrients in their diet.

It is important to note that specific formulations and ingredients of Calcialiment supplements may vary depending on the manufacturer or supplier.

History

Calcialiment was founded in 1930 in Brittany. As a family business specialising in animal nutrition, the company has developed around three core areas: minerals for producing livestock farmers, infancy feed, and premix for industrial farmers.

1900 : Théophile Joseph Lognoné represents the first generation of watchmakers, born July 10, 1869, and died February 4, 1920, at the age of 50.

1935: His son, Théophile Lognone, a watchmakers & jeweller in the Mont Saint-Michel Bay area, noticed that the eggs produced by his hens were stronger and hatched better when he gave them bits of shell to peck. His discovery earned him the first prize at the 1936 Ministry of Agriculture Competition.

1937: He set up a company that specialised in feed for laying hens.

1952: His sons Pierre and Xavier shifted the company's activity towards mineral feed for pigs and, in 1955, created the first Breton “Piétrain” breed pig farm.

Nowadays, Calcialiment is managed by Yves Reneaume and François Lognone; the historical owner is the company president. The company employs 100 people, working at 4 production sites. Calcialiment has expanded to operate at the national level.

DLG Group

Calcialiment-Vilofoss[7] is owned partly by Vitfoss and by DLG,[8] which is one of the biggest premix producers in Europe.

DLG Group has a significant presence in Europe, with operations in several countries. The company is headquartered in Denmark and operates in many European countries through its subsidiaries and joint ventures.[9]

In Scandinavia, DLG has a strong presence in Denmark, Norway, and Sweden, where it operates a network of agricultural retail stores, produces animal feed and other agricultural inputs, and provides advisory services to farmers.

DLG also has operations in several other European countries, including Germany, Poland, Lithuania, Latvia, Estonia, and the United Kingdom. In these countries, DLG operates through subsidiaries and joint ventures, providing a range of agricultural products and services to farmers and other customers.

Overall, DLG Group is one of the largest agricultural companies in Europe, with a broad geographic presence and a diverse portfolio of products and services.
