How safe is your chicken dinner if vaccines don’t keep up?

South Africa’s bird flu vaccine rollout is slow, with only one farm vaccinated due to strict rules, red tape and lack of vets.

The government has promised mass vaccination across South Africa, but industry experts, Izaak Breitenback (SAPA CEO) and Francois Baird (founder of Fairplay Movement), warn that this favors big producers and leaves small farmers at risk, threatening food security and exports.

Curious how this affects you as a chicken consumer? Watch the full interview with industry experts now: https://www.enca.com/business/poultry-producers-struggle-without-insurance

Sometimes the most productive thing you can do is pause...

Laptops were closed for a moment.
Calendars briefly cleared.
And for once, the only focus was resetting.

In the midst of constant deadlines and back-to-back meetings, our team took a short but meaningful break, inviting a professional massage therapist from Pamper Bar to help us reset, refocus and recharge.

Just 15 minutes of calm did wonders. Tension was released. Conversations flowed. And laughter followed.

When you prioritize well-being, you’re not only caring for your team, you’re leading them forward.

When the stakes are high, your voice must be heard.

In the past weeks, FairPlay, the advocacy group fighting against dumping and predatory trade, called out the sudden 30% price hikes on mechanically deboned chicken meat (polony, viennas, nuggets, etc.) after South Africa's poultry import ban from Brazil.

Our Media Relations team ensured that their message did not get lost, by employing a strategy that secured national coverage in Farmer's Weekly SA, Times LIVE, Business Day, Freight News by FTW and more linked below. The articles sparked conversations about accountability and consumer protection.

Fairplay stood up for customers. We made sure the country heard it.

Reputation is like a bank balance. Build it daily or risk having nothing to draw from when trouble hits.

Every kept promise is like a deposit.
Every slip-up? A withdrawal.
When crisis strikes, the strength of your brand depends on the balance you've built and how you communicate with stakeholders.

In our latest blog, we explore why silence can be risky during a crisis by examining how two major events were handled in the public eye:
▪️ The 2025 Budget Speech postponement
▪️ Airport Company South Africa (ACSA)’s response to their leadership scandal.
