Shaping tomorrow’s nutrition

Being able to feed a growing population in an environmentally safe and sustainable way is increasingly important. And rightfully so: nearly everywhere on our planet, water and arable land are becoming hot commodities in short supply. In most countries, the population and the demand for food are on the rise. Farmers all over the world therefore need to increase productivity to meet this growing demand. Simultaneously, the same farmers take their responsibility for health, safety, the environment and animal well-being very seriously. Provimi knows and understands these challenges. We have solutions. It’s why we help farmers to increase their production of meat, milk and eggs in the most responsible way possible. We call that Shaping tomorrow’s nutrition.

Our industry and customers continue to professionalise and consolidate. They are very well-informed, decisive and clear not only on their needs but also their expectations of us. Vast improvements continue on production facilities, management quality and the conditions of and for the animals. We rise to this challenge and work in partnership with them to match and exceed their expectations

Our strong local focus and empowerment means that our local organisations are deeply embedded in this local market, finely tuned to local circumstances and needs. From there they serve our customers in the most optimal way, responding quickly and efficiently. Provimi has always excelled at assessing our customers’ needs; it’s how our companies became best-in-class. We aim to maximise the success of our customers, and do our utmost to make that happen. Fast and highly-efficient conversion of our customers’ needs into nutritional products and programmes has always been at our core. It’s simply what we do best.

We deliver this high level of performance locally through structural evolution of knowledge and technology in our global organisation. Provimi’s worldwide Feed Solutions network connects customers with our expertise and its technical implementation. It is all about research commitment and continuous innovation; extending to product and nutritional solution development, as well as getting the best ingredients and determining the optimum formulations for our customers. We rely on a smart, practical infrastructure and clearly defined processes to take our knowledge and experience to a higher level. Whenever and wherever we can. This has evolved from sharing best practices into a systematic approach to developing and implementing innovation. Our scientists offer fact-based solutions that yield exceptional results and benefits. We have a complete and extensively researched portfolio of additives, premixes and complete feed, powered by field experience and constantly optimised by new research and market insights.

Examples of Provimi’s structural evolution of knowledge are:  

• Provimi is the objective third party when it comes to applying and assessing essential ingredients in animal feed. Our work on the application of Phytase is a good example of this.
• Our Piglet Rescue System, a successful cross-sharing case. When sows are unable to feed their piglets, piglets can survive by drinking Rescue milk.
• Preciane, a new advanced maize silage analysis service to improve farm efficiency

Provimi delivers excellent results that make economic sense. Our local companies are customer-driven, providing local solutions to local problems but with the benefits of a global nutrition organisation. The key to success lies in the reciprocity of our local companies and our global knowledge and technology organisation. Locally, Provimi knows the customers’ needs and translates them into technical specifications, while our global expertise shapes these into new solutions and products. Provimi’s characteristic values of constant evolution and high performance are at the very heart of our people and culture. It goes without saying that we value them highly.

Being environmentally responsible is not a goal in itself; it’s a vital condition for delivering a high level of performance and constant evolution. Animal well-being and food safety are essential in reaching our goal of shaping tomorrow’s nutrition. Healthy, happy and consciously fed animals shape tomorrow’s nutrition. We have a responsibility to use nature’s resources as efficiently as possible. Everyday we strive to develop more precise and balanced formulations to make better use of natural ingredients and reduce the global carbon footprint.

All animal feed we provide ends up in your food. That is why we make sure you can fully rely on our nutritional specifications and data. We are transparent and honest, the only way we know to provide the best solutions and build good and clear client relationships. Our purchasing policies are driven by product quality and safety. Nothing less.
