Japfa Vietnam s safe and efficient livestock value chain

Japfa Vietnam is building a safe and efficient livestock value chain through a closed-loop Feed-Farm-Food model that emphasizes biosecurity, product quality, workplace safety, and environmental responsibility. The company's transformation strategy, launched in 2024, prioritizes the development of a safe and healthy working environment across its feed mills, farms, slaughterhouses, and processing facilities.

Japfa Vietnam's Environmental, Health, and Safety (EHS) management system is built on four key pillars: leadership commitment, risk assessment and control, legal compliance, and continuous improvement. The company fosters a proactive safety culture by encouraging employees to identify potential hazards and participate in managing workplace risks.

Regular safety checks, EHS discussions between management and employees, and the incorporation of EHS requirements into operational processes contribute to a safe and sustainable working environment. Additionally, Japfa Vietnam's contract farming model for colored chickens, which combines local and imported breeds, supports long-term partnerships with local farmers and improves operational efficiency and market predictability.

The model has helped Nguyen Manh Hai, a chicken farmer in Yen Thinh village, Bat Bat Commune, Hanoi, expand his business over 15 years by providing support and guidance, allowing him to switch to a higher-performing chicken breed (Mia chickens) and build a modern closed-house production facility.
