Facilitating the expansion of a poultry company from 8 to nearly 30 farms

Cairo 3A poultry farm had a remote site in Cairo, Egypt, without grid connectivity. This presented a series challenge for the company's operations' the absence of grid-tied power solutions. The company wanted an independent network of power systems, along with after-sales service, warranty coverage for extensive usage and flexible payment terms.

Within 12-weeks, Mantrac supplied 20 canopy gensets (C13-400 IN). Each of the eight farms were given two gensets, while four gensets were kept as standby. Mantrac aligned with Cat to arrange a tailored payment plan; a 50% down payment and 50% paid over six months. Further, consultants provided a remote monitoring solution to manage operational expenses in real-time.
