About MHP

MHP SE is the parent company of a leading international food & agrotech
group with headquarters in Ukraine, and production facilities not only in
Ukraine, but also in the Balkans (Perutnina Ptuj Group).

 

Ukraine: MHP has the greatest market share and highest brand recognition for
its products. MHP owns and operates each of the key stages of chicken
production processes, from feed grains and fodder production to egg hatching
and grow out to processing, marketing, distribution and sales (including
through MHP's franchise outlets). Complete vertical integration practically
eliminates MHP's exposure to raw material price fluctuations since its grain
production exceeds internal consumption requirements, allowing the Company to
be an important participant in the international commodity trade.  In
addition to cost efficiency, vertical integration also enables MHP to maintain
strict biosecurity and to control the quality of its inputs and the resulting
quality and consistency of its products all the way to the point of sale. To
support its sales, MHP maintains a distribution network consisting of nine
distribution and logistical centers within major Ukrainian cities. MHP uses
its own truck fleet to distribute its products, reducing overall
transportation costs and delivery times.

 

MHP also has a leading grain cultivation business growing corn, soya and
sunflower to support the vertical integration of its chicken production and
increasingly other grains, such as wheat and rape, for sale to third parties.
MHP leases agricultural land located primarily in the highly fertile black
soil regions of Ukraine.

 

The Balkans: Perutnina Ptuj (PP) is a leading poultry and meat-processing
producer in the Balkans, with production sites in four Balkan countries:
Slovenia, Croatia, Serbia, Bosnia and Herzegovina. PP owns distribution
companies in Austria, Macedonia and Romania and supplies products to fifteen
countries in Europe. PP is vertically integrated across all states of chicken
meat production - feed, hatching eggs production and hatching, breeding,
slaughtering, sausage production and further poultry processing.

 

MHP trades on the London Stock Exchange under the ticker symbol MHPC.
