DNA Genetics is expanding south as DNA South America has become the exclusive distributor of genetics to South America.

DNA South America, located in Campinas, São Paulo, Brazil, will provide pork producers throughout South America with DNA Genetics’ maternal and terminal lines. DNA Genetics will begin exporting live animals and frozen semen to Brazil from its nucleus herds as soon as November 2019, and the transfer of genetics to Brazilian producers will begin soon after.  

“Introducing our genetics to South America is an excellent opportunity for us to expand our footprint in the global marketplace,” says Brett Bonwell, CEO of DNA Genetics. “We believe that DNA South America has the people, expertise and customer base necessary to achieve success in South America with the progressive producers in that market.”

“The partnership we’ve formed with DNA will allow us to bring our customers the highest-quality genetics, genetic lines that thrive in large commercial systems, and a final product that’s widely accepted and valued in the global marketplace,” says Thomas Bierhals, CTO of DNA South America.

DNA Genetics is a producer-owned swine genetics company that truly understands pork production. Our team members are relentlessly committed to the continuous improvement of our genetic lines through individual performance and genomic testing. All of this means a faster rate of genetic progress in both our maternal and terminal lines that’s passed quickly onto our customers. DNA Genetics’ mission is to provide superior value to our customers through high-quality and low-cost genetics designed to meet customers’ needs better than all alternatives.
