ABIS Exports (India) Pvt. Ltd., in its endeavor to support Bihar State achieve self-reliance, inaugurated its new State-of-the-art 1200 MT poultry feed plant at Bela Phase 2 Industrial Area, BIADA, Muzaffarpur on 9th Jan 2021.

The new feed plant is spread over an area of about 5 acres and the first phase of manufacturing poultry feed has already begun. Manufacturing livestock feed and fish feed is also proposed in future.
While Interacting with the press, Mr. Bahadur Ali, Founder & Managing Director, IB Group shared that the idea to setup feed plant in Bihar came up during his interaction with Shree Giriraj Singh Ji, Central Minister. In 2018, while the Hon’ble Minister was touring India and had visited Rajnandgaon, Chattisgarh, it was Shree Giriraj Singh Ji who had pointed out that while IB Group was buying maize from Bihar, the poultry production was being done in Chattisgarh and later, the poultry was again being sold in Bihar. Instead, it was better to setup the feed plant in Bihar itself. Inspired by Hon’ble Minister suggestion, it was decided to setup a feed plant here.
Mr. Bahadur Ali added that “High quality protein is now a basic need for all and IB Group will do its very best to cater for the same” . Requesting Smt. Renu Devi Ji, Honorable Deputy Chief Minister, Bihar State to support and promote its poultry farmers just like Orissa State Govt. which provides electricity subsidy and 50 lac capital subsidies. Also, the maize, which is now being sold in other Indian States could be restricted to consumption within Bihar. Mr. Bahadur Ali added that if the State Govt. policies were supportive and beneficial to the farmers (just like Andhra Pradesh and Telengana), in next 5 years, Bihar State too could become a leading State for poultry business in India.
After the inaugural function, Dr. S. Dey, Senior Vice President and Head-IB Integration announced the names of IB Managers and IB Integration Farmers who were give appreciation certificates and mementoes by Shree Giriraj Singh Ji, Honorable Minister of Animal Husbandry, Fisheries & Dairying, Government of India and by Smt.
