MARKET ANNOUNCEMENT
Sadia announces partnership to slaughter and process chicken
It is expected that 140 thousand chickens will be slaughtered per day with the agreement with Nicolini; the products will leave the slaughter house with the Sadia brand. The Company will be responsible for the sales.
Sadia established an agreement with Frigorífico Nicolini, which will slaughter and process 140 thousand chickens per day for the Company.
This partnership is similar to that the Company maintains with Minuano and represents an increase in production capacity for chicken of 5%. Additional revenues are estimated at R$150 million per year.
Sadia will supply the chicken and will be responsible for logistics and sales, which will be mainly directed towards the foreign market. Nicolini will be responsible for the slaughter and processing.
Frigorífico Nicolini is located in Garibaldi, in the state of Rio Grande do Sul. With this partnership, Sadia will reinforce its position in this state, where the Company already has a plant, in Três Passos.
