In 2018 Emma and her brother John commissioned Powell & Co to build a free-range poultry unit to house 16,000 layers.  The flock of Boven Browns have the highest production in the area with an average of 15,000 eggs a day supplied to Noble Foods.

The 266ft x 65ft steel-framed building has been designed and constructed to future proof the building and accommodate an extension to increase to 32,000 layers.

Special Features

• Steel framed building in Juniper Green with Goosewing Grey for the bird area
• Newquip 264 system for 16,000 birds
• 6m2 packing area to support future expansion with a white-walled egg store area
• Ventilation system fitted to support extension to 32,000

Why Powells?

“From the initial enquiry through to sign off, it was fantastic to work with an amazing efficient team.  The building that Powell & Co constructed is amazing and met all the specifications we required.  Regular consultation with the team during the build ensured all elements were covered and the building has been designed with future expansion in mind.”  Emma Stevens, T Swift & Son, Wheaton Ashton, Staffordshire.
