The R&D department, at the heart of NOVOGEN, exists to create and develop high-performance, competitive lines to satisfy all laying hen markets. To achieve that, the department needs to be innovative, knowing how to anticipate trends in the market – particularly when it comes to societal expectations – but also conduct the established breeding program with the utmost rigour.

Since 2008, NOVOGEN has been innovating intensively in R&D with the successive development of new selection systems such as breeding in collective cages followed by breeding on floor. The R&D team has also managed to improve selection processes constantly, and to introduce new technologies such as genomic selection. NOVOGEN has also managed to surround itself with world-renowned scientific partners such as INRAE and SYSAAF. The various research work carried out has helped speed up and consolidate the breeding program.

Looking beyond these innovations and developments, the quality of information collected from farms is decisive in maximising genetic progress. The work of selection is in fact a succession of tasks, each one as important as the last.  The qualities of the lines obtained depend on the breeding scheme, but also on the rigour and reliability of the work done throughout the whole process (identification, traceability, monitoring of farms, measurement and gathering of phenotypes, data verification and analysis, selection of the best individuals etc.). This work, carried out in partnership with farmers, allows more accurate genetic assessment of the birds as a result.

The R&D department is first and foremost a team effort, with complementary skills coming together to allow selection of the best possible lines. The team’s enthusiasm and dynamism allow us continually to develop new innovative projects that continue to bring real differentiation between NOVOGEN lines and others in the egg market.

At NOVOGEN, the Supply Chain department plays a pivotal role. Their primary objective is to ensure that our customers’ orders match with our production capacities.

The French team is made up of :

• Mélanie BADIER and Justine MEHEUT in charge of Sales and Logistics Management. Their tasks range from the receipt of customer requests to monitoring the quality of the deliveries. It involves order management, organising transport and sales support.  
• Amélie GANGODAGE is in charge of planning. It is her job to respond to customer requests while taking our production capacity into account, as well as the internal and external constraints we are facing.
• Céline JUNGUENE is in charge of health Certificate. She is tasked with following up our breeding and hatchery control plans, the planning of specific samples to meet the requirements of the countries and the completion of health certificates.

Headed up by Quentin FAIVRE, the Supply Chain team works every day to provide quality products on time to our customers. Deliveries from Brazil and US subsidiaries are complying with the same organisation and quality standard.
