Cobb Germany celebrates anniversary
Big celebration in Munich to mark the 25th anniversary – International guests and partners met to celebrate, exchange ideas and network.
MUNICH. The history of Cobb Germany is now a quarter of a century old. In 1998, the Wimex Group entered into an agreement with The Cobb Breeding Company, securing the exclusive right to produce and distribute Cobb parent stock. The company Cobb Germany was founded to distribute the Cobb500 parent stock in Germany, Austria and Switzerland. Since then, the company has grown considerably and now employs 170 people. Cobb Germany is active in over 20 countries, primarily in Central and Eastern Europe. The Cobb500 is the most effective broiler in the world with the lowest feed conversion ratio and the best growth rate. In addition, the customers are reaping the benefits of impressive improvements in breeder performance.
Guests from all over the world came to Munich for the celebration. Among those present were Rafa Gil, General Manager Cobb Spain, James Truscott, Director Cobb Germany, Mathew Wilson, Sales and arketing Director Cobb Europe, with their European colleagues, as well as the Sales, Technical and Production teams from Cobb Germany. „We are delighted that so many companions and partners accepted our invitation to the celebration,“ said Leopold Graf von Drechsel, Managing Director of the Wimex Group. „We can be very proud of what we have achieved in the past 25 years – I would like to take this opportunity to express my special thanks to James Truscott. The successful development of Cobb Germany is closely linked to his passion and commitment. We are not yet at the end of the road and are looking ahead. We have a lot planned for the next few years and look forward to continuing Cobb Germany’s journey together with supporters and partners.“
A thank you to the employees
Cobb Germany can rely on committed employees. Not only did the company celebrate its anniversary in Munich, there were also a number of anniversaries among the staff. Some employees have been on board since day one, others joined a little later and can already look back on 15 years of service at Cobb Germany. „We are grateful for every single employee at Cobb Germany,“ emphasised Leopold Graf von Drechsel. „The success story of the company is closely linked to the commitment of the workforce,“ said the Managing Director of the Wimex Group, using the stage to thank the employees.
