Poultry division
Stork decided to maintain this service and at the same time look into the possibilities of expanding these activities. The European poultry processing industry was on the eve of mechanisation and automation which resulted in the birth of a Stork poultry division.
Originally started as a separate activity within the Boxmeer based Stork Textile and Paper division the poultry branch began to grow rapidly. In 1975 an independent subsidiary under the name Stork PMT (Poultry processing Machinery and Technology) was established.
Rapid expansion
One year later Stork PMT decided to expand its activities to the United States, the biggest poultry market in the world. The Gainesville, Georgia, based company Gainesville Machine Corporation was taken over and renamed Stork Gamco. As a Stork PMT sister company it reached the status of the most important poultry processing equipment supplier in the United States.
Stork PMT expanded further which resulted in the move to a new building with large production halls, more office space and a well equipped demo centre in 1985. The facilities have been expanded several times since.
Stork PMT today
Nowadays Stork PMT is the leading and trend setting company in poultry processing equipment and systems. Besides the Boxmeer plant, which is shared with sister company Stork Titan, a second production facility is located in Dongen. As of May 2005 both Stork PMT and Stork Titan present themselves under the Stork Food Systems name.
Extensive representation world wide
Next to the Dutch plants two sister companies take care of the American continent. Stork Food Systems USA (as of May 2005 Stork Gamco´s new name) takes care of the North American market, Central America and a part of South America. The other part of South America is covered by the Brazilian facility, Stork Food Systems Máquinas Alimentícias Ltda.
Stork Food Systems sales and service centres are located in all parts of the world, supported by an extensive network of selected agents and representatives.
Additions to the Stork Food Systems group
In April 2006 a new member joined the Stork Food Systems group: Townsend Engineering was acquired and renamed Stork Townsend. Townsend, with offices in Oss, the Netherlands, and Des Moines, IA, USA, develops and produces specialised equipment for the meat processing industry.
In Januari 2007 Nijal S.A.S. was aquired. Based in France, Nijal manufactures machines for processing of meat that are complementary to those of Stork Food Systems.
In September 2007 related further processing products and developments were aquired from Proval B.V.
The company significantly expands Stork´s previous capabilities, especially in regard to pork and beef processing.
