COMPANY INFORMATION
With major customers including Coles, Metcash (IGA) and Woolworths it is a fair assumption that at some time Hazeldene’s chicken has been the star attraction at an Aussie BBQ that you have attended. Established in 1957 as a hatching and egg operation, today the company is Australia’s only fully integrated regional poultry processor. In 2006 its operation grew through the acquisition of Maitre De Foods, a further meat processor, from Mid West.
Everyday activities include managing and coordinating growing, processing, delivery fleet management, plant maintenance and laboratory testing. Whilst retaining the highest quality levels, like any driven business they are on a continual journey to improve operational excellence and efficiencies. Most notably non-unusable “waste” chicken has been eradicated from processes and water usage per bird has been reduced to 10 litres whereas the industry commonly achieves 203 times that level!
