Avivagen Inc. (VIV:TSX.V; VIVXF:OTCQB) announced in a news release that it has "received its largest yet order for OxC-beta™ Livestock from Univet Nutrition and Animal Healthcare Co. (UNAHCO), its long-standing partner in the Philippines."
The firm advised that this most recent order for three tons of OxC-beta Livestock is 50% higher than the largest order previously requested by UNAHCO, which to-date has now ordered more than 18 tons.
The company's CEO Kym Anthony commented, "Since its November 2016 purchase of 150 kg for use in swine feed, UNAHCO's demand for the product has grown significantly. The steady growth in UNAHCO's use of OxC-beta reflects increased adoption across the company's line of swine feed combined with expanded applications in the company's various premixes which today includes use in both broilers and sows."
"The growth in UNACHO's use of the product is based on the success of its OxC-beta-containing swine feed combined with ongoing product testing demonstrating a growing list of species and performance parameters that are positively affected by OxC-beta," CEO Anthony added.
The company stated that it believes that the UNAHCO relationship together with its successful distribution and customer adoption model will continue to fuel increased worldwide demand and new applications from both existing and future OxC-beta Livestock customers.
The firm highlighted that "the fact that UNAHCO's largest order of OxC-beta Livestock to date comes amidst the ongoing Coronavirus pandemic, a time when worldwide food production is under enormous stress, is evidence of the critical impact that the product has on the health and productivity of food producing animals."
The company stated that its OxC-beta Livestock product has demonstrated to be an effective and economical alternative to the antibiotics commonly added to livestock feeds and has the potential to satisfy global mandates to remove all in-feed growth-promoting antibiotics. The company said the product is currently available for sale in Australia, Malaysia, Mexico, New Zealand, Philippines, Taiwan, Thailand and the U.S.
