De Heus is a family-owned Dutch feed group supplying compound feeds, concentrates, premixes and nutritional support for livestock and aquaculture.
Netherlands · Privately held family-owned group
De Heus is a privately held, family-owned feed group headquartered in the Netherlands. It combines local feed mills with research and knowledge sharing across an international group, and its portfolio serves poultry, pigs, ruminants, fish and shrimp. The company reports more than 90 plants, with operations across Europe, Asia, Africa and South America. Its export business, Koudijs, supplies feeds, concentrates, premixes and functional ingredients to more than 75 countries.
The model is built around local production. Mills can draw on the raw materials available nearby and reflect local farming conditions, while the wider group contributes research and expertise. For farmers, feed consistency, reliable deliveries and practical advisory support are what count, and De Heus sells to independent farms as well as to integrated producers and dealers. Formulations are not the same everywhere: composition depends on ingredient availability and local requirements in each region.

## Size of the business

De Heus reports more than 90 plants. Separately, the acquisition of CJ Feed & Care, completed on 3 March 2026, brought 17 feed mills into the group.

### Is Koudijs a separate group from De Heus?

No. Koudijs is De Heus's export business brand and part of the group.

### Are formulations identical across all markets?

Not necessarily. Composition, ingredient availability and local requirements can differ between markets, so the specification of the actual product is what counts.
