ForFarmers results for the first half of 2026
Continued strong results and further market share growth

Pieter Wolleswinkel, CEO ForFarmers: “We successfully sustained the strong results achieved in the first quarter throughout the second quarter. Volume development remained positive, demonstrating that we have further strengthened our market positions. The dedication and commitment of our people in serving our customers have played a major role in this achievement. Underlying profit increased significantly once again compared with the first half of last year, rising by almost 60%. This growth was primarily driven by strong performances in the Netherlands, Germany and Poland. Results in the UK remained satisfactory.
In the Netherlands in particular, we continue to invest in and focus on innovation at the farm level to support improved animal performance and health, while further advancing the sustainability of the livestock sector. Through these efforts, we aim to provide our farmers with the best possible support towards a sustainable future.
We recently received approval from the Polish competition authority for our joint venture with KPS. This significantly strengthens our position in the growing Polish poultry market and creates a solid platform for further consolidation. We expect to complete the transaction in the fall. In light of the impact of this transaction and the strong improvement in our financial performance over the past period, we will announce our new financial targets during a Capital Markets Day at the end of the year.”
