Agrihouse Foundation has announced it will distribute free day-old chicks to participants during the 5th edition of Ghana Poultry Day, scheduled for July 1, 2025.
The Ghana Poultry Day is an annual event organized by Agrihouse Foundation to celebrate and promote Ghana’s poultry industry by encouraging investment, consumption of local chicken, and the adoption of sustainable agribusiness practices.
This year’s celebration, under the theme “Investing in the Local Poultry Sector: A Means to Creating Jobs, Promoting Agri-Tourism, and Improving Food Security,” will be held at the forecourt of the State House in Accra and expected to begins at 1:00 PM, shortly after the National Thanksgiving Celebrations.
In a social media post, Agrihouse Foundation announced that the free distribution of day-old chicks is part of its broader efforts to promote both backyard and commercial poultry farming among Ghanaians. The initiative aims to boost local production, reduce reliance on imported poultry, and support livelihoods through job creation.
In addition to the chick giveaway, attendees will be treated to free, deliciously grilled local chicken and introduced to exciting investment opportunities within the poultry value chain.
“We shall be giving out SOME FREE DAY OLD CHICKS, at the GHANA POULTRY DAY
“Everyone will equally get to enjoy some free, local, good grilled chicken while learning about the fulfilling investment opportunities within the Poultry value chain!
“There will also be an exhibition of everything Poultry; from FEED TO FOOD and climax the day with the LOCAL POULTRY ADVOCATE COMPETITION, where leaders from both private and public sectors, get to cook a good meal, with our local Poultry.” The post stated.
The event will also feature a comprehensive poultry exhibition from feed to food alongside panel discussions on policy, production, and market growth. Attendees can look forward to culinary displays and agribusiness networking opportunities, the popular “Kosua ne meko” tasting session (boiled egg with pepper), and the highly anticipated Local Poultry Advocate Competition, where leaders from both the public and private sectors will showcase their culinary skills using Ghana’s own poultry.
Agrihouse Foundation encourages the public, especially youth, farmers, agripreneurs, and investors, to participate in the celebration and support the growth of the local poultry industry.
