Meet The Team
Our passionate and skilled management team has extensive local and international poultry industry experience and has invested heavily in infrastructure to ensure biosecurity meets international standards, bringing only top-quality eggs to the market.
Our Community
Here at Goldenlay, we have adopted international corporate governance guidelines around the framework created by the World Bank and have obtained funding for an in-house HIV/Aids programme for staff and the local community. Robust corporate governance with due regard for our corporate social responsibilities is a key focus in the company.
Among our outreach programmes, we support many local entities through donations, provision of school lunches and HIV nutritional feeding programmes, building ablution facilities for the communities primary school, among other running projects. We are fully committed to sustainable poultry production, following global best practice within this vibrant sector of the Zambian economy. We are proud to be seen as a trailblazer for other developing businesses within the African community.
Goldenlay is partnered with Phatisa, an African private equity firm focused
on transforming Africa through sustainable food production.
Operations
Our competitive edge comes from our sophisticated poultry houses, experienced management
and well-trained staff, coupled with cutting-edge technology that far exceeds expectations, limiting
the potential risks frequently associated with the poultry industry. Our poultry houses and farming
techniques are among the most outstanding in Southern and Central Africa.
BREED AND FEED
Goldenlay chickens are the best of breed. Only premium locally the highest quality locally sourced grain and ingredients are used to produce our in-house feed requirements. Our nutritionist carefully monitors feed formulations, ensuring all nutrients required by the birds are precisely incorporated. Using premium feed guarantees optimal health for our chickens and our eggs.
Quality Assurance
Our pullets are fed high-quality rations with the goal of raising strong, healthy chickens that will produce exceptional eggs.
Biosecurity
Goldenlay Management takes biosecurity issues seriously and has implemented various measures to address these; for example, constructing a state-of-the-art quarantine rearing facility.
Environmental Management and Animal Welfare
We have developed a customised environmental management and animal welfare programme, drawing on internationally recognised veterinarians to assist in developing, monitoring and administering the vaccination programme, which does not compromise the quality of either the chickens or the eggs.

Impact and Sustainable Development
Goldenlay’s impact objectives are aligned with the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals, to achieve its mission of mechanising African agriculture, ensuring food security and enhancing profitability.
Goldenlay’s social responsibility and community development activities include donating > 2.5 tonnes of egg pulp to local school and community feeding programmes annually.

Goldenlay teamed up with the Phatisa Foundation in 2016 to develop and maintain a protected carbon sequestration area. Invasive plant species have been cleared and the indigenous vegetation is currently being allowed to regenerate. The natural miombo forest is capable of offsetting 170 tonnes of carbon dioxide equivalent per annum.
