Kabir - Cobb
Kabir international has been acquired by Cobb Europe.
The Kabir breed was established in Israel by the Katz family.
The Kabir gene pool includes a number of pure lines used to provide a range of products with specific coloured and naked neck characteristics. The gene pool is unique, considered to be close to the traditional fowl from which the modern broiler chicken has been developed.
This acquisition, following the purchase last year of Hybro with a number of coloured lines and the strategic partnership with Sasso, will put Cobb in a strong position to supply the coloured and alternative chicken markets in the future.
Kabir International has a small but select group of customers in Italy, other parts of southern Europe, China, Malaysia, Thailand and the USA.
