A week of dialogue, innovation, and connection
An international event at the heart of our headquarters in Albi
On September 22nd, Phodé had the pleasure of welcoming its partners from across the globe to Albi, our historic hometown and company headquarters, for an exceptional week of exchange and collaboration.
The 2025 Distributors Forum was far more than a professional meeting: it was a genuine opportunity to share ideas, explore innovations, and discuss the future challenges shaping the animal nutrition industry.
All our partners were welcomed with a speech by our CEO, Pierre Etienne, and our Animal Care Director, Christophe Langlade.
A dynamic program of expertise and insight
Over the course of three days, participants attended workshops and presentations led by internationally recognized experts, who shared their research and perspectives on the challenges ahead for sustainable animal production.
The forward-looking conference topics included:
- One Welfare: Connecting animal, human, and environmental well-being
- The impact of climate change on animal production and sustainability tools for the future
- Current geopolitical dynamics and their influence on the animal nutrition sector
Each presentation inspired lively discussions and meaningful exchanges, highlighting the importance of a collective, responsible vision to anticipate and embrace the transformations within our industry.
A truly global gathering: Over 27 countries represented
This year’s forum brought together partners from more than 27 countries, making it a vibrant multicultural hub.
Partners from Brazil, Italy, Indonesia, and many other nations shared their local market experiences and insights.
Our international subsidiaries were also in the spotlight:

These interactions further strengthened the cohesion of our global network of partners, all driven by a shared commitment: combining animal well-being and innovation to build a sustainable future.
A forum focused on the future
The 2025 Distributors Forum will remain one of the highlights of our year-marked by rich exchanges, diverse perspectives, and the collective energy that fuels our entire ecosystem.
We extend our heartfelt thanks to all our partners and speakers for their presence, trust, and engagement.
