Sunner Development Co. Ltd. was originally established as a chicken hatchery in China. Its CEO shortly expanded the operation to become the first company in China to integrate all three phases of the poultry industry: meat packaging, chicken farming and feed generation.
In the process, he's rejected the three prevailing poultry industry business models: disintegration, consisting of largely unaffiliated businesses that specialize in only one area and rely on position contracts to organize their co-operation; buyback, whereby companies not only sell feed to chicken farms but also buy back the mature broilers; and subcontracting, where unaffiliated farms are paid a fee to raise chickens. The chief executive officer must analyze whether the complete integration model is sustainable in the future.
