The listed poultry company plans to establish a new egg powder processing facility alongside its existing liquid pasteurized egg plant while adding 14,000 tonnes of grain storage capacity to improve efficiency, reduce costs and support future growth.
KARACHI: Wahdat Poultry Farm Limited has announced a major expansion plan that includes establishing an egg powder processing plant and increasing its grain storage capacity by approximately 14,000 tonnes, as the company moves to strengthen its value-added food business and improve operational efficiency.
The expansion was approved by the company’s Board of Directors during a meeting held on July 15, 2026, according to a disclosure submitted to the Pakistan Stock Exchange (PSX). The board also approved the company’s annual budget and business plan for the financial year running from July 1, 2026, to June 30, 2027.
Egg powder facility to build on existing infrastructure
As part of the approved plan, Wahdat Poultry will establish a powdered egg processing facility adjacent to its existing liquid pasteurized egg plant.
The company said both facilities will share the same building, utilities and supporting infrastructure, allowing it to optimize resources and lower operating costs while expanding its portfolio of value-added egg products.
According to the company, egg powder offers important commercial advantages over liquid egg products, including a significantly longer shelf life and the potential for higher profit margins, making it an attractive segment for future business growth.
Grain storage capacity to rise by 14,000 tonnes
Alongside the new processing facility, the board approved the procurement and installation of additional storage silos that will increase the company’s grain storage capacity by around 14,000 tonnes.
The expanded storage infrastructure will enable Wahdat Poultry to store different types of grain more efficiently while reducing wastage, lowering maintenance requirements and improving overall operational performance.
The investment is expected to strengthen the company’s feed management system, which remains one of the most important cost components in poultry production.
Company evaluating financing options
Wahdat Poultry said additional funding will be required to finance the egg powder plant, install the new grain silos, replace its existing poultry flock and support future working capital requirements.
The company plans to finance part of the processing facility through bank borrowing, subject to final approval by the Board of Directors after reviewing financing proposals.
Management has also been directed to evaluate funding options from financial institutions before presenting recommendations for final approval.
Strategic investment in value-added poultry products
The latest expansion reflects Wahdat Poultry’s strategy to diversify beyond conventional poultry operations by investing in higher-value processed food products while modernizing its production infrastructure. With growing demand for processed egg ingredients from the food manufacturing, bakery and hospitality sectors, the planned egg powder facility could strengthen the company’s long-term competitiveness while enhancing efficiency across its operations.
