Scandi Standard AB is a prominent European poultry producer headquartered in Stockholm, Sweden, with operations spanning Sweden, Norway, Denmark, Finland, Ireland, Lithuania, and the Netherlands. The company operates a vertically integrated business model that encompasses the entire poultry value chain, including bird breeding, feed production, hatching, slaughtering, processing, and distribution.
Scandi Standard generates revenue primarily through two main operating segments: Ready-to-cook (RTC) and Ready-to-eat (RTE). The RTC segment is the largest contributor, accounting for approximately 77% of total net sales, and includes fresh, chilled, and frozen chicken products. The RTE segment contributes around 20% of net sales and focuses on processed, pre-cooked, and convenience poultry items. The remaining revenue is generated from other activities, including the production and sale of eggs, as well as the provision of by-products such as feathers and offal for use in animal feed and biofuels.
Geographically, the company's footprint is concentrated in Northern Europe. Sweden and Denmark are its largest markets, each contributing over a quarter of total sales, followed by Ireland, Norway, and Finland. Scandi Standard maintains a strong competitive position through its portfolio of established local brands, which include Kronfågel in Sweden, Danpo in Denmark, Den Stolte Hane in Norway, Naapurin Maalaiskana in Finland, and Manor Farm in Ireland. The company serves a diverse customer base across the retail, foodservice, and industrial sectors. Recent strategic acquisitions of processing facilities in Lithuania and the Netherlands have further expanded Scandi Standard's production capacity, allowing it to meet growing regional demand and increase its export capabilities.
