Agroland acquires poultry producer Avirom

Business Forum
Agroland Business System has completed the acquisition of Avirom, a Romanian company specialising in day-old chick and duckling production, in a deal that strengthens Agroland's vertical integration strategy within its agri-food operations.

Avirom operates an agro-zootechnical complex in Buzău County, including poultry breeding and reproduction farms, a hatchery, and supporting infrastructure. In 2024, the company recorded turnover of €1.1 million.

The acquired assets will be integrated into Agroland's Foods division, which includes the poultry platform in Mihăilești, the organic egg farm in Curtișoara, and the liquid egg processing facility in Caransebeș.

"The acquisition of Avirom is aligned with the Group's development strategy, Agroland Vision 2030, which aims to consolidate an integrated agri-food group, increase in-house production capacities, and expand control over the value chain, from inputs to finished products," said CEO Horia Dan Cardoș in a statement.

The acquisition supports Agroland's long-term development within the Romanian agri-food sector.
