Milestone – 25 years

In August, 2022 Stallen completed and celebrated 25 years of excellence in the poultry industry with an event in Goa. They conducted a technical conclave and celebration from 7th to 9th August at the Hyatt, Goa. This was attended by the head office team, sales team, as well as key customers, consultants, veterinarians and industry leaders. It was an event to remember with a company overview, musical evening with comedian. Everyone participated in the fun and frolic by singing and dancing to popular Bollywood songs. The next day session had  two technical sessions and a gala night. Representatives from FATRO, Italy were present to offer an introduction to FATRO and their global presence along with their product range. The first technical session was an engaging but yet extremely insightful one on mycoplasma, its problemsand its prevalence in India led by Dr  Sanjay Raj Anand. The session detailed the conditions and symptoms of this disease and its prevention using MS-VAC (MS, inactivated vaccine) and MYC-VAC (MG, inactivated vaccine) as well as CORIVAC (Coryza inactivated vaccine). The session also highlighted and busted common myths on the disease and the truth on medication Vs vaccination. The second session was an informative one that highlighted the respiratory complex problems in poultry with specific reference to Infectious Bronchitis virus conducted by Dr Mahendra Chaudhari. Stallen-FATRO’s solution to these problems were presented via IB-OLVAC and OLVAC B+G+R. The gala dinner was an elaborate affair at a venue at Anjuna beach and had local entertainment and performers which enthralled the participants with their dance movements. Through the 3 days, with the coordinated outfits and planned entertainment, the industry was on one platform – customers became friends, and staff celebrated being family! The event capped out the 25 years in the same fashion Stallen has completed 25 years in the industry – being friendly, being genuine, being honest and most of all putting their stakeholders first!
