ForFarmers signs agreement to acquire Polish producer STW
Animal feed producer ForFarmers is expanding its Polish operations through its subsidiary Tasomix, targeting the acquisition of a production site in the eastern part of the country. The transaction remains subject to approval by the Polish competition authority.
Agreement signed, finalization expected in early 2027
ForFarmers announced on September 16, 2026 that it had signed an agreement to acquire, through its Polish subsidiary Tasomix, 100% of the shares of STW SA, an animal feed producer based in Sokołów Podlaski, in eastern Poland.
The transaction is part of the group's growth strategy aimed at strengthening its position on the Polish market, particularly in the poultry, ruminants and pork segments.
The transaction is subject to approval by the Polish competition authority. Its finalization is expected for early 2027.
The perimeter acquired includes the feed business and its production site, as well as the product and customer portfolio. It excludes feed logistics and poultry farming by the Leszczyński family.
A capacity of 270,000 tonnes and 76 employees
STW SA was founded in 2016 and is owned by the Leszczyński family. The company operates a feed production facility in eastern Poland and is also active in feed logistics and poultry farming.
Following recent investments, annual feed production capacity has been increased to approximately 270,000 tonnes. The company employs 76 staff members.
Tasomix, present in Poland for over 35 years and integrated into ForFarmers since 2018, has been collaborating with STW SA for several years, which already manufactures for Tasomix under this partnership.
According to Paweł Świerkula, Chief Executive Officer of Tasomix, the transaction concerns the acquisition of the production site and product and customer portfolio, and should enable efficiency gains in production and logistics.
Strengthened cooperation with the Leszczyński family
Beyond the acquisition of the feed business, Tasomix and the Leszczyński family have indicated their desire to strengthen their cooperation, notably in logistics and feed supply for the Leszczyński family's poultry farming operations.
Michał Leszczyński, Chief Executive Officer of STW SA, stated that the transaction provides in his view a foundation for continued growth and development, combining local rootedness with the scale and expertise of ForFarmers and Tasomix.
ForFarmers, listed on Euronext Amsterdam, has production operations in the Netherlands, Germany, Poland and the United Kingdom, and employs approximately 3,000 people.
