Through this merger, the new structure will bring together, from January 1, 2025, under the name Ogualim, all professionals in the animal feed sector and will federate their approach, expertise and their operational solutions of today and tomorrow, in the service of quality management and feed safety.

Recognised for their commitment and operational solutions, Oqualim, Qualimat and Qualimat Sud-Ouest are joining forces in a single structure. This will bring together feed, premixes, mineral feed, liquid feed or specialties producers and will also include among its partners professional suppliers of raw materials, representatives of companies involved in collection, storage and transport. This grouping will allow for greater consistency of sectoral requirements, in compliance with the Guide to Good Practices in Animal Nutrition.
This collective approach should strengthen the international recognition of French standards, such as the animal nutrition certification standard (RDNA) and its 'Sustainable Soy' module (SDNA), the non-GMO technical bases (STNO) and equine nutrition (STNE), the raw material supplier certification standard (RCF), supported by Oqualim or the Qualimat-Transport standard.
The harmonised, integrated and impartial application of certification protocols, built by and for French professionals, is based on the involvement of certification bodies (CBs) and auditors, trained and respectful of these protocols. The continuity of the collaborations established between associations and CBs will guarantee the robustness and recognition of certified French companies in the future.
"This structuring project, respectful of the values and fundamentals upheld by the profession, will strengthen the approaches and experience acquired in terms of risk analysis, monitoring, control and certification. This success will serve all animal production sectors and the health safety of our food". (Press release, September 2023).
The optimisation of resources and pooling actions, or even the development of new services are intended to encourage the membership of all French animal feed professionals, of which more than 310 companies are already collectively engaged in a resolutely dynamic sector, to face new challenges including that of decarbonisation.
