The speakers from Cobb were James Truscott, director of Cobb Germany, and Patrick van Trijp, technical consultant from Cobb Europe, joined by presentations from Roxell and Fancom, showing feeding systems, automatic nests and environmental/ventilation systems for broiler breeders and broilers.

The main presentation by Mr Truscott explained the advantages of the Cobb 500 broiler and breeder in terms of both physical and economic performance. He also spoke of recent results, showing a drastic improvement in animal welfare issues and also innovations in the broiler and breeder industry that help farmers' and companies' profitability.

The inspiration for this seminar came not only from the fact that Cobb is enjoying a majority market share in Bulgaria with further sales increases, but to celebrate its 10 years in this market. The event was aimed at creating more personal contact between Cobb producers, distributors and clients for a lasting partnership and friendship.

"As the clock stroke midnight, everyone was amazed what a pleasure it was to be together and enjoy a gorgeous fireworks display mirrored by a full moon in the clear sky in this beautiful mountainous part of the world," commented Mr Truscott.
