ForFarmers completed Polish joint venture with 50.5 per cent stake
ForFarmers completed the formation of its Polish joint venture ForFarmers Polska, in which it held a majority stake of 50.5 per cent and which it consolidated in full.
What happened
ForFarmers and KPS Food Group completed the formation of the joint venture, according to the company. The joint venture was named ForFarmers Polska and had been announced on 12 February 2026. ForFarmers held a majority stake of 50.5 per cent in the joint venture and consolidated it in full.
All conditions for this transaction had been met. Approvals included approval from the shareholders and the local competition authority. The operations of Tasomix and KPS were brought together under ForFarmers Polska. The founders of Tasomix and KPS remained minority shareholders in the joint venture.
Completion meant the structure moved from plan to operation, with responsibilities divided between majority and minority holders. Full consolidation meant the venture’s results were included in full in ForFarmers’ reported figures, while economic ownership remained shared.
Polish poultry position showed why the venture mattered to investors
According to the company, the partnership strengthened ForFarmers’ position in the growing Polish poultry market. The combination of Tasomix’s feed expertise and KPS’s position created a powerful, integrated organisation that was well positioned for further growth.
For investors, the relevance lay in scale and focus rather than in unrelated activities. A feed specialist combined with an established local position offered a clearer route to participate in that segment.
Feed volumes and workforce placed ForFarmers scale in perspective
With annual feed volumes of approximately 9 million tonnes, ForFarmers was a leading player in Europe. ForFarmers employed approximately 2,700 people. ForFarmers N.V. was listed on Euronext Amsterdam.
For private investors, those size details provided context for how a country venture fitted beside a broad European base. Employment and volume described capacity, while the listing described where ownership was traded.
