What Giordano Global does
Giordano Global is the operating trade name of Giordano Poultry Plast S.p.A., an Italian-headquartered manufacturer of specialized plastic equipment for the commercial poultry industry, founded in 1962 and controlled by the family-owned Giordano Holding. The company designs and produces equipment across four product categories: (1) Transport (plastic crates, coops, and pallets for live poultry including chickens, turkeys, ducks, quail, and game birds, with HDPE construction, UV stabilization, and RFID-enabled traceability); (2) Farm Equipment (automated feeders such as Twist and Maxi Twist, Jumbo drinking lines, and polypropylene slat flooring); (3) Egg Handling (the EggsCargoSystem / ECS for commercial eggs and the Hatching Cargo System / HCS for hatcheries — standardized tray/divider/pallet systems designed for robotic automation, with ECS serving as the de facto international industry standard for 25 years); and (4) Vaccination Devices (precision spray vaccination systems with 30-100 micron adjustable droplet control, integrated via the October 2024 Valery Technologies acquisition). Manufacturing uses virgin HDPE and polypropylene with UV stabilization delivering 15+ year product lifespans, with production sites in Italy, Egypt (via the Eddygypt JV), and licensed production in Argentina.
The company operates a hybrid B2B go-to-market combining seven regional Business Units (Asia Pacific, Latin America, Europe, CIS, Middle East & Africa, North America, China) with an extensive distributor network of exclusive and near-exclusive partners, several with 20-45+ year relationships. Distribution is supplemented by multi-language digital presence (10+ languages, active LinkedIn/Facebook/YouTube/Instagram), a downloadable product catalog, and regular participation in global trade shows including VIV Europe, Eurotier, SIAVS, ILDEX, and FENAVI. Pricing is quote-based and not publicly disclosed.
Giordano sells to enterprise and mid-market poultry farms, egg producers and packers, hatcheries, poultry equipment distributors, and veterinary service providers, with named customers spanning the United States, Brazil, Argentina, Mexico, Australia, the Netherlands, Germany, France, Poland, Hungary, Romania, the UK, Spain, Palestine, Egypt, China, and beyond. The January 2026 acquisition of INDIV Inc. — a 60+ year old US-based poultry solutions provider that had been a partner since 2004 — converts a key distributor into a controlled subsidiary, materially strengthening the company's direct presence in North and Latin American markets. ISO 9001:2015 certified (May 2023), family-led with Enrico Giordano serving as COO, and active in emerging markets including CIS and Southeast Asia.
