Environmental, economic, and social sustainability in action
EDINBURGH, Scotland – Aviagen® is pleased to introduce its 2024 Sustainability Report, outlining how sustainability is built into everyday decisions across our breeding programs and production operations. The interactive report shares progress in sustainability through breeding, environmental responsibility, and long-term resilience – grounded in data and real-world action across our global supply chain.
“Sustainability isn’t a standalone initiative for us – it’s part of how we work every day,” said Jan Henriksen, CEO of Aviagen. “By focusing on healthy, robust chickens, responsible operations and strong local engagement, we aim to support poultry producers in delivering affordable, nutritious protein while caring for animals, communities and the planet.”
Commitment into action
The report shows how global sustainability priorities are translated into meaningful local action across regions and markets. Among many examples, our Aviagen S.A.U. business unit in Spain demonstrates how investments in renewable energy and electrification are reducing energy use and emissions while strengthening operational resilience – a story you can explore further in a short video from the team.
In Australia, community-focused initiatives – ranging from supporting therapeutic equine programs to helping local families access to everyday essentials – reflect a broader commitment to social sustainability.
Beyond these local snapshots, the report also underscores Aviagen’s continued focus on knowledge sharing and talent development worldwide. From Production Management Schools and regional training programs to initiatives that bring practical management and efficiency insight directly to poultry producers, the company continues to invest in learning that strengthens flock welfare, performance, and long-term sustainability.
Investing in people and communities
The 2024 report also reflects Aviagen’s commitment to developing future poultry professionals and supporting the communities where it operates. Through education programs, scholarships, and local initiatives, Aviagen continues to build skills, share knowledge, and contribute to a resilient global poultry sector.
