W. van der Meer en Zonen B.V. is a family run company, specialised in slaughtering laying hens and processing them for consumption: The boiling fowl, also called soup hen or stewing hen. Slaughtering is done entirely in-house in a technically well-equipped slaughterhouse, at an acceptable price according to the EU guidelines and marketing standards. The laying hens are taken in by company transport, hung from the slaughter line and processed for consumption by our staff, by means of advanced in-line machines. The boiling fowls are subsequently packed, frozen and made ready for shipment to our satisfied customers.
