LANDMECO A/S is acquired by SKIOLD A/S

LANDMECO, Scandinavia's largest poultry equipment manufacturer, is today taken over by SKIOLD A/S

a leading Danish agricultural company, with subsidiaries in Europe, CIS, Asia and Oceania. LANDMECO has grown heavily year after year, both within broilers and layers, and has strong expectations of continuing this development. SKIOLD's acquisition is seen as a major strength in relation to LANDMECO's continued growth strategy.

"Today, LANDMECO's strong product range is already sold through dealers in more than 20 countries, and with SKIOLD's large network, there are many exciting opportunities for distribution in new markets. In the future, LANDMECO will stand even stronger, via SKIOLD's acquisition, because of improved competitiveness in a poultry market that is growing rapidly. We are seeing a future full of opportunities, "says Karsten Andersen, CEO, LANDMECO A/S
