Message From The Chairman

From humble beginnings as a consulting firm several years ago, YF Agrivet has progressively developed into a broad-based food and agribusiness technology company, serving the food and agribusiness sector in the East Asia region with innovation, diligence and sincerity. As a proud Hong Kong company, we take considerable satisfaction in bringing together innovative Western technology and management systems with typical Chinese vision, industriousness and adaptability. We believe this to be Hong Kong’s great competitive strength and strive to be a model of what is possible when great ideas from different continents meet.

We have progressively enlarged our product lines at the request of our customers, and now sell over 300 different products, made in twelve different countries and supported by technical staff from eight nations. We use the best available products and personnel to develop cost-effective solutions appropriate to your business environment. Our service capacity now extends into over fifteen disciplines, including greenhouse and field crop management, cattle reproduction, pig genetics, farm design/build and refrigeration engineering services. Our staff’s backgrounds in ISO9001, HACCP and industry-based Quality Assurance schemes ensure that your enterprises conform with the strictest international standards.

The Asia-Pacific region contains over half the world’s population, and is supplied with food by a decreasing number of Asian farmers on progressively larger landholdings, as Asia’s urbanisation patterns mimic that of western countries in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Technology to improve water use efficiency, enhance production, reduce cost of production, reduce labour costs and minimize post-harvest losses (typically 40-50% on most countries in the region) are critical inputs to maximise your profits in a sustainable way. Advanced genetics, nutrition, and appropriate, safe chemical use are vital tools ensuring safe, consistent supply chains, capturing new markets and further exploiting existing demand. Our innovations in packaging and climate control can significantly reduce your wastage and help you capture new high margin customers. At YF Agrivet, we stand ready to supply the tools and knowledge to help you exceed your targets and dominate your markets.
