Four generations of passion for poultry
Lafaut is a leading, Western European breeder, hatchery and exporter of day-old chicks and hatching eggs. Trade? For us, it's far more than that. Since our great-grandfather, Gerard Lafaut, started with his first laying hens back in the 1940s, we've been committed to providing the highest quality.
Four generations on, we manage over a million mother birds. Our day-old chicks and hatching eggs are shipped worldwide. Yet, we remain at heart the same family firm.
Deeply rooted yet forward-looking, we're always planning for the long haul. Loyal and dependable, we strive to honour our family name.
Welcome to Lafaut!

Our locations
In our hatcheries, we devote every day to caring for our chicks and adhering to strict biosecurity measures.
I grew up among chicks and was handling hatching eggs from a young age. This passion is in our DNA, and we consciously choose to keep breeding and hatching ourselves. This is how we maintain a direct connection with the products we supply.
