Шаблон:Short description Шаблон:Infobox company
Hy-Line International or Hy-Line is an multi-national genetics company that raises and sells commercial/industrial laying chickens. It is a subsidiary of the German EW Group.[1] The firm has subsidiaries in multiple countries including Brazil, Japan, and the United Kingdom and has 60 distributors in more than 50 countries worldwide.[2]
Corporate
The firm is a subsidiary of the privately owned German livestock breeding company EW Group. Its president is Jonathan Cade; Thomas Dixon serves as the firm's director of international sales and marketing[3]
Operations
Hy-Line directly operates subsidiaries in the United Kingdom, Italy, Australia Brazil, and South Africa.[4] Many of its subsidiaries were formerly distributors bought out by Hy-Line, including Hy-Line Italia (formerly Valversa) and Hy-Line South Africa (formerly Hy-Line Chicks).[5] In several countries it has instead signed exclusivity deals with distributors. In India, Amrit Group has distributed Hy-Line chickens since July 2014 when a new 'poultry hub' was established as part of plans to capture 30% of the Indian egg-laying market by 2017–2018.[6][7] Sales in Vietnam are exclusively licensed to the Ba Haun Company since 2013.[8]
Products
Products of the company include the Hy-Line W-36, Brown, and Silver Brown lines.[9]
Criticism
Hy-Line International has been subject to criticism from animal rights group Mercy for Animals following the release of a video alleged to have been filmed inside of a Hy-Line hatchery, showing the process of chick culling. The video went viral and received widespread media attention across the English-speaking world.[10][11][12][13]
Hy-Line Australia was sued in 2013 for unsafe practices at its chicken hatchery at Huntly near Bendigo, after a fire in one of its sheds in April 2009 left an employee trapped due to a lack of fire exits. The man escaped by breaking through floorboards. The case was settled out of court for an undisclosed sum.[14][15]
Sponsorships
Hy-Line Australia is the name-sponsor of the Hy-Line Australia Oval, which is a home ground of the Heathcote District Football League.[16] It also sponsors the Hy-Line International Research Award of the Poultry Science Association.[17]
