The modern poultry industry in Africa is undergoing rapid transformation, and Zimbabwe is one of the countries where this growth is most evident. In this success story, we explore how a professional poultry farmer in Zimbabwe partnered with Livi Machinery to establish a large-scale, efficient, and profitable egg production business. By adopting Automatic Chicken Layer Cages and customized poultry farming solutions, the farm successfully raised 30,000 layers while ensuring high productivity, lower labor costs, and excellent animal welfare standards.
This case study highlights the comprehensive services Livi Machinery provides, from poultry farm design to equipment delivery, installation, and after-sales support. It demonstrates why our Battery Cages for Layers are trusted worldwide by commercial poultry farmers.
The Challenge: Scaling Up Egg Production in Zimbabwe
Zimbabwe’s poultry industry is expanding quickly due to rising consumer demand for eggs as a daily source of protein. However, many medium- to large-scale farmers face several challenges:
- Space utilization: Land is limited, and farmers need equipment that maximizes capacity.
- Labor management: Manual feeding and egg collection are labor-intensive and costly.
- Biosecurity: Disease prevention requires professional cage design with easy cleaning and waste disposal.
- Consistency in egg quality: With large flocks, the focus is on ensuring stable egg production.
For our Zimbabwean client, the goal was ambitious yet clear: raise 30,000 laying hens in a modern, automated poultry house, ensuring efficiency and long-term profitability.

Poultry Farm Case Of 30,000 Layers Battery Cages in Zimbabwe
Livi’s Solution: Automatic Layer Battery Cage System
After careful consultation, our engineering team proposed the Automatic Layer Battery Cage System. This system is the cornerstone of commercial egg production across Africa and beyond. The solution was designed to perfectly match the client’s production scale and local conditions in Zimbabwe.
1. Customized Poultry Farm Design
Before production began, our team worked closely with the farmer to design a full farm layout. The design covered:
- Poultry house dimensions and ventilation system.
- Proper orientation to optimize natural airflow and lighting in Zimbabwe’s climate.
- Placement of Automatic Layer Cages, feed systems, egg collection, and manure removal equipment.
By providing a turnkey solution, Livi ensured the client could move from planning to operation with minimal risk.
2. Automatic Chicken Layer Cages
The project installed 30,000 Layers Battery Cages in Zimbabwe, designed with:
- High durability: Made from galvanized steel, ensuring rust resistance and long service life.
- Comfortable space allocation: Each hen has enough room to move, eat, and lay eggs comfortably.
- Efficient design: Sloped floors allow eggs to gently roll forward into collection trays without damage.
The cages were built for high capacity while maintaining bird welfare and maximizing egg output.
3. Automation Systems
Our Automatic Chicken Layer Cages were equipped with:
- Automatic feeding systems to evenly distribute feed, saving labor and ensuring consistent nutrition.
- Automatic drinking systems with nipple drinkers to provide clean water and reduce waste.
- Automatic egg collection systems to reduce breakage and improve efficiency.
- Manure removal belts to maintain hygiene, reduce disease risk, and minimize odor.
Together, these systems transformed the poultry farm into a highly efficient, semi-automated operation, reducing manual labor costs by up to 70%.
Seamless Transport and Installation in Zimbabwe
One of the concerns for African farmers investing in international poultry equipment is the logistics and installation process. Livi Machinery takes this seriously and provides door-to-door solutions.
- Efficient transport: All equipment was carefully packaged and shipped to Zimbabwe in containers, ensuring safe delivery without damage.
- Professional installation team: Our experienced engineers traveled to Zimbabwe to supervise and assist with installation.
- Training services: The local farm workers received hands-on training in operating the automated equipment, ensuring smooth daily management.
This holistic service model guarantees that clients are not only buying equipment but also receiving a complete operational solution.
