INNSCOR Africa (Innscor) says volumes across its poultry divisions improved during the year to June 2019 after the country recovered from an outbreak of avian flu in 2017.
Between May and August of 2017, the lethal and highly contagious flu hit the region, killing more than one million chickens in South Africa and Zimbabwe.
Addington Chinake, Innscor’s board chairman said Irvine’s, the group’s flagship poultry division, completed its biological asset re-stocking programme during the year under review.
