In the competitive world of commercial poultry farming, efficiency and reliability determine success. This was the case for Mwale Poultry, a mid-sized farm in Bulawayo. Despite having over 10,000 layers, their old cages were limiting production. Mortality rates were creeping up, feed was being wasted, and manual labor costs were mounting.
Farm owner Mr. Mwale knew that upgrading his poultry equipment for layers was essential—but he wanted a solution that guaranteed results, not just promises.
