Committed to the Chinese market for a long time, our cooperative was invited to take part in the official delegation during the State visit of the President of the Republic to China last April.

This event made it possible to reaffirm our links with our Chinese partners, in particular through the signing of a letter of intent. In addition, this mission was an opportunity for our teams to discuss with the members of the Government present on the files in progress and on our projects for the future.

Internationally, more than 8,000 kilometers from Lamballe in Brittany (France), a few offices have been set up in the colors of the cooperative... First in China, then in Thailand, Vietnam and even Taiwan.

Whether on our farms dedicated to genetics or as part of the development of our export activities, the employees located in Asia work to promote Cooperl.

So to help them develop and have our know-how recognized beyond borders, an immersive seminar at the heart of the cooperative was organized in early February in Brittany!

During the visit to our sites, they notably discovered "la Bulle", the brand new immersive space for presenting the activities of our cooperative, run by the Cooperl Environment teams.

If you haven't already seen it, the presentation video of "la Bulle" is available here.

We wish them a good continuation in their adventures and we thank them for their contribution to the development and the recognition of our know-how... beyond the borders!

Afer a last editionin digital in 2020, Eurotier, the largest show dedicated to breeding in Europe, whose theme was “transforming breeding”, has just closed its doors after 4 days of the show in Hanover (Germany) !

Our booth of nearly 250 m² was organized according to the major challenges faced by international breeders in the conduct of their business, namely health safety, traceability, animal well-being and the reduction of the carbon footprint. Complete and adapted systems from our 4 companies, Cooperl, CRD, Vereijken and Farmapro, were offered to them to meet each of these challenges.

It was an innovative and original way of presenting our breadth of know-how which has aroused the interest of visitors. From free farrowing systems, through scraping solutions and Cooperl Suite applications, the multi-hatted teams made themselves available to meet visitors.

The feedback from the teams is very positive with a lots of interested prospects, particularly in some countries on previously unexplored markets.

One year ago, Cooperl Environment team presented the biofuel project to representatives during a biofuel web conference. As a reminder, Cooperl Environnement biofuel is a biofuel made from flotation fats mainly from our industries.

In order to recover its greasy residues while reducing its carbon footprint, our cooperative will supply its entire fleet of trucks from 2025 with biofuel made from flotation grease!

A pilot plant is already making it possible to test this biofuel on a few vehicles and a new plant will come out of the ground in 2025. Objective: to produce 20 million liters per year of this biofuel, made from greasy residues from the manufacturing processes of the food industry.

This biofuel is 100% substitutable for diesel, can be used all year round and does not require engine modification.

Tuesday 13, Wednesday 14 and Thursday 15 September, SPACE tradeshow was back at the Rennes exhibition center in France for a 35th edition !

On the occasion of this unmissable event in the field of breeding, many visitors came to visit the stand of Cooperl and its subsidiaries : Farmapro, Nucléus, Calipro, Vereijken and CRD. Some employees and administrators also had the opportunity to speak on topical subjects among the 100 conferences organized by SPACE.

With 1,200 exhibitors present to welcome more than 90,000 visitors, including more than 8,000 international visitors from 120 countries, the 35th edition of SPACE has kept its promises, thus regaining its international dimension, proven over the past 2 years.

We had the honor of receiving the 2nd prize of the "Ivan Tolpe Award" 2022 thanks to our ValuTRAC solution, which combines the technique of V-scraping (TRAC) with the manufacture of liquid fertilizer from urine of pigs. This distinction is awarded to companies offering an innovative technique that contributes to the treatment of slurry in a more sustainable and more economical way.

The Cooperl teams thus had the opportunity to present the ValuTRAC solution at the international ManuREsource conference held in Holland. His goal ? Allow the exchange of experiences between regions on policy measures taken to deal with manure surpluses, in terms of management and treatment solutions.

The first phase of renovation work on the rail freight line between Vitré and Gérard in France has just been completed.

The french State, the Brittany Region, Vitré Communauté, Cooperl and SNCF Réseau are together committed to the sustainability of this line. It allows the delivery of our agricultural raw materials to our main livestock feed manufacturing plant.

In 2021, we transported by rail freight 36% of our raw materials out of all our volumes of raw material purchases for animal feed. The renovation of this line is fully in line with our decarbonization objective since the train represents nine times less carbon emissions than the truck.
