Axereal Elevage appoints Jonathan Boichut as its new CEO

Jonathan Boichut has been appointed CEO of Axereal Elevage, effective 1 May 2021.

This appointment is confirmation of Axereal’s ambitions for its livestock farming business (feed compound and agricultural supplies, production organisation, hatcheries and livestock buildings). The Group is the market leader in these segments across a wide area of central France from the Paris region to the southern Auvergne.  The road map for the livestock farming business today and in the future is focused on creating value for farmers, and a responsibility to meet the expectations of customers and consumers at a time when we are experiencing a deep-seated agricultural and nutrition transition.

Jonathan Boichut (38) has a solid background in the livestock farming sector. He joined Axereal Group in 2015 to develop the technical and marketing plans for Axereal Elevage’s ruminant segment, before becoming sales and marketing director for this same segment in 2019. He trained as an agricultural engineer at ISARA engineering school (Lyon).

Axereal Elevage is part of Axereal Group’s new Agriculture & Channels Division and sits alongside the agricultural and milling businesses led by Jérôme Bos.
