Both companies retain their independence and it allows JSR to offer their customers in Great Britain more choice and a world class range of competitive products. We look forward to offering our clients in Great Britain the very best of both companies’ extensive portfolios.”

CEO of JSR Tim Rymer added “For the British market it means that pig producers get access to the latest genetic developments in pig breeding supported and driven by one of the largest Research & Development programs in the world.
