Cobb Germany celebrates 25 year anniversary
SILOAM SPRINGS, Ark., USA, July 31, 2023 — This year marks the 25-year anniversary of Cobb Germany, a distributor of Cobb Europe, serving over 20 countries in Central and Eastern Europe. To commemorate this milestone, the company hosted a celebration in Munich earlier this month, bringing together numerous colleagues who have helped the distributor be successful.
Cobb Germany was founded in 1998 as a result of an agreement between the Wimex Group and the Cobb Breeding Company. The company was responsible for the production and distribution of Cobb500TM parent animals in Germany, Austria and Switzerland. Now with continuous growth and over 170 employees, Cobb Germany operates in over 20 countries, in Central and Eastern Europe.
Leopold Graf von Drechsel – Managing Director of Wimex Group paid tribute to the companions and partners and is pleased with the successful development of Cobb Germany over the past 25 years. He also emphasized the commitment and importance of employees to the success of the company.
Cobb Germany Director James Truscott said the long-term success of the distributor is built upon the company’s investment in premium genetics and quality products.
“We’ve been fortunate to have the long-time support of our shareholders, allowing us to invest in developing a high-quality product,” Truscott said. “At the same time, Cobb Europe provides us with valuable technical support to continue improving results.”
"Our relationship with Cobb Germany is very strong and they are one of our distributor success stories. We've grown together for the last 25 years and look forward to continued partnership for years to come," said Weatherly.
