What CCPA GROUP does

CCPA Group (Conseils et Compétences en Productions Animales) is a French agricultural cooperative union founded in 1966 and headquartered in Janzé, Brittany, providing integrated animal nutrition solutions to feed manufacturers, integrators, and livestock farmers across poultry, ruminant, and pig value chains. Its portfolio spans feed solutions (Vivactiv, Proactiv, Feedstim, Thermo, Créa Advance), nutritional specialties (Deltavit, Galaphos, Crystalyx), organic acids (Butirex C4, Moxid, Fungibact, Salmox), premixes and concentrates, and a suite of proprietary digital decision-support tools (ThermoTool, Acari Tool, Chorus, Farm-E-Val, Morphoscore). The company's technological backbone, branded "Enhanced Nutrition" (Nutrition Augmentée), integrates 25+ years of phyto-expertise (plant-based functional ingredients), zootechnical science, precision formulation, laboratory analytics, and digital tools, validated through 2 experimental stations (Euronutrition in France, Sanuren in Mexico), 5 specialised laboratories, and a network of 300+ reference farms running 70 in vivo trials and 400,000+ analytical tests annually.

CCPA monetises primarily through direct B2B sales of formulated feed products, premixes, nutritional specialties, and organic acids to industrial customers, complemented by analytical services (Artémis laboratory network), energy management consulting, and NIR2U near-infrared spectroscopy services. Pricing is quote-based and tailored to species, volume, and formulation complexity under multi-year contracts. Distribution is run through wholly-owned subsidiaries across France, Spain (Nutega, Novation), Portugal (DIN), Czech Republic (Iframix), Turkey (CCPA Turkey, Yem-Vit), Mexico (Euro-Nutec), Uruguay (Nutrisur), and Vietnam/Singapore (Nutristar Asia), with exclusive distribution partnerships in select emerging markets. The cooperative governance model — owned by member agricultural cooperatives ARTERRIS, UNÉAL, EUREDEN, ALTITUDE, TERRENA, and NATERA under a "one person, one vote" structure — aligns the company with long-term farmer and sector interests rather than short-term shareholder returns. CCPA reported €220M revenue and €25M EBITDA in 2025 (up from >€200M in 2024), with 67% of revenue generated internationally and 526 employees across 4 continents.
