magnolia chickenJoining the San Miguel Foods Inc.’s (Magnolia) roster of poultry contract breeders and growers is a good business opportunity for farm owners.

The success story of Magnolia’s contract grower, Ofel Dator together with her husband Serafin Dator, owners of Ofel’s Poultry Farm, began breeding chicken in 2005 with just minimal capital on hand. Today, in just a span of four years, Ofel’s Poultry Farm is doing a great business, earning well over P2.5 million a year.

So, why they chose this kind of investment?
1. The fact that Magnolia Fresh Chicken is one of San Miguel Food Inc.’s power brands, and therefore, it is a sure-fire investment.

2. They firmly believed, even in the face of the current economic crisis, that there would be no end to the need for chicken meat products — and therefore, no end to the need for their products.

3. It is a way to help provide jobs for other people in their community.

Now, are you ready to be one? For sure, you’d definitely be in good company since you’re joining the elite team involved in delivering Filipinos their beloved Magnolia Fresh Chicken.

  8. Hello all,

    Your advice is greatly appreciated, Thank You.

  9. i would like to ask how much cost to build poultry farm as per cost of estimation and plans project. i got 1 hectare of lots.. good place.. and far of they highway… with source of water.. possible can enter 10 wheeler truck. for my estimation it can load about 20k birds.but in my adjoining lots it have already poultry farm…  how can i start ?? isn’t possible to survey to your nearest branch in your company.. site located in pangasinan.. my email add papshustler@yahoo.com

  10. helo, meron po kaming 2 hectares sa Leyte, kaya lang tawid ilog. we are very much interested with regards to magnolia poultry business, paano po ba kami makakapagstart? saan po kaya ang pinakamalapit niyong branch para mapuntahan namin at makapagsurvey din kayo sa location. thank you so much po..

  11. hi Bernard. can u pls email me the approx cost of building tunnel ventilation poultry house w/ dimension of 16m x 150m. also include the cost of equipment,fans,automatic feeders/drinkers,heaters etc. can u pls give me estimated cost for single and double deck poultry house. Nakakita kc ako ng poultry house na may second floor so the it can load up to 80000 birds, 40K sa baba then 40K sa taas..Thank you.e-mail add is: jhun_classique21@yahoo.com

  12. I am a contract grower with Magnolia. Here are some tips if you are thinking of doing the same. Firstly, you must build a tunnel ventilated poultry house. It is advisable to build it big enough to house 36,000 chickens. The cost of building the house will be around 12 million pesos. Plus you will need a further 4 to 8 million to buy the following. You will need a few hectares of land, preferably around 8 hectares so you can expand your business later on. Then you have a whole range of other things to do before you start operating, such and installing electricity, business permits, obtaining receipt books from BIR prior to commencing, then organizing SSS and Philhealth for employees, You need to ensure you have a good water supply and if and when you find it you will need to have a deepwell, then the water must be tested to see if it is above the required quality. Then you will be best advised to buy a truck that is large enough to haul rice hulls, preferably a 12 wheeler. Then you will need to buy a generator big enough to provide electricity to the poultry house in case of brown outs (and there will be many). Please be wary of  hiring an engineer to construct the building, you will be paying a whole lot more than it actually costs. It is advisable to purchase the materials yourself and pay someone to build it. When you are ready to begin you will be loaded with one-day old chicks. The growth period is usually around 32 days to grow a chicken of around 1.7 to 1.8 kgs. After harvesting, don’t hold your breath while waiting for your check from Magnolia in 15 days as they promise. It takes 30 days or more, then it takes 4 days to clear before you have access to the funds, so make sure you have enough funds to pay wages, bills etc while waiting for your payment. The payment per chick will be around 15 to 19 pesos depending on your performance. The contract will not mention a rate increase during its term of three years. I hope this information has been helpful to someone intending to venture into the business of Contract Growing.

    1. Hello Joy, salamat sa information. Gusto ko lang po sana itanong kung bakit aabutin ng 12million ang building para sa chicken po. Concrete po ba ung building? Hindi po ba puede ung gawa sa kawayan saka nipa ung bubong? Meron po kasi ako 10 hectares na ricefield gusto ko sana convert sa poultry raising

    2. Hi Mam thank you po sa reply.. bali dapat po pla magready ng 20M para makaumpisa ng minimum of 36,000 heads.. hayyyyyyy.. ang mahal po pla ng capital. Interested pa naman po sana ako kaso hindi ko kaya ang ganon kalaking capital. Mga pang milyonaryo na po pla tong business na to hehe
