2 Our Story For over 35 years, M&J Chickens has been committed to providing its customers in the wholesale and retail markets with the highest quality range of chicken products available. Since its early years, M&J has been a family business in the real sense. When husband and wife team Mina and Jenny (that s where the M&J comes from!) emigrated from Greece in the 1970's, they were searching for ways to support themselves and their family. Since Mina believed that the business of feeding people was always good business, they opened a delicatessen. With hard work and determination, the deli was a success, and Mina soon seized the opportunity to diversify by offering chicken products like kebabs and schnitzels. Sales went better than expected. M&J Chickens was born. It wasn t too long before the business outgrew its single shop premises and moved to a larger site, prompting Mina and Jenny to focus solely on chicken. True to its humble beginnings as a single shop in Wiley Park, Sydney, M&J is still proudly familyowned, with Mina and Jenny s children Michael, Harry and Maria all working in the business having played a big part in what M&J is today. M&J Chickens has grown into Australia s largest privately-owned second-tier poultry processor, operating a nationwide business that employs over 300 staff around Australia.

3 Why Australian Chicken? Australia is renowned for maintaining the highest standards in poultry production the world over. Our Australian chickens are: NOT kept in cages NOT administered hormones Hormone supplementation is a practice that has been banned internationally for forty years, a stance supported by the Australian Chicken Meat Federation and M&J Chickens. For several years, M&J has been exporting Australian chicken to the world most notably in the Pacific, South-east Asia and the Middle East. From international five-star-rated hotels and restaurants to resorts and government sites in the UAE, Hong Kong and Singapore, M&J exports high-quality chicken products to discerning clients who demand the best. In recent years, the Asia-Pacific region has experienced a shift from traditional to Westernstyle convenience foods. This has been driven by the rapidly growing tourist population and emerging affluence that is pushing the demand for high-quality poultry products. Despite the local presence of multinational food processing companies, there remains a significant gap in food processing and packaging capabilities that M&J has been able to address. M&J is well positioned to provide Australian poultry products to this growing market and continuously seeks new opportunities to expand its presence on the world stage.
