Petersime already has an impressive track record in Russia. Up to now, Petersime installed more than 30 different hatchery projects, adding an additional setting capacity of 500 million eggs per year. The recent establishment of the Moscow-based subsidiary, Petersime OOO, enables the company to further expand its activities in the country. Petersime OOO acts as a sales and service organisation, thus increasing local support to Petersime's customers and strengthening the Petersime local distributor, Hartmann.

Tom Dewaele, Director at Petersime, commented: "Our expansion in Russia via the Petersime OOO subsidiary fits in our strategy to be present in our key markets and to be close to our customers. With the creation of Petersime OOO, we confirm our commitment to our Russian customers."

Anna Nemtseva, director of Petersime OOO, added: "The establishment of Petersime OOO opens up a unique opportunity to better serve our existing customers and to approach new ones. We are convinced that the innovative Petersime technology will enable Russian hatcheries to further contribute to the growth of the country’s poultry industry."
