Despite the different approach to management practices now required for its new antibiotic-free broiler chicken meat, Jamaica Broilers Group says it has received encouraging responses from members of its supply chain.

The company’s supply chain, which includes feed mill, hatcheries and contract farmers, are fully on board and committed to the antibiotic-free production, President and CEO Christopher Levy said.

“They’re so excited about it. How they responded has been nothing short of encouraging because they know it’s a very big change for a broiler operation,” Levy said, noting that the support also signals the farmer’s dedication and commitment within the industry despite the challenges faced due to the novel coronavirus pandemic.
