JAPFA Officialy Launch Olagud

30 May 2024

At the end of May, PT Japfa Comfeed Indonesia Tbk (JAPFA), through its downstream business JAPFA Food, introduced its latest brand, Olagud. Olagud offers a variety of products, ranging from fresh probiotic chicken to ready-to-eat probiotic chicken dishes. Probiotic chicken is known to contain less fat and higher protein compared to regular chicken.

Probiotic chicken refers to broiler chickens that are fed with Lactobacillus bacteria or other microorganisms to aid in nutrient absorption and maximize nutrition. Therefore, chickens that are given probiotic feed get maximum nutrition. Apart from that, it also helps the growth and development of chickens so that they are not easily attacked by disease. 
 
JAPFA's Corporate Affairs Director, Rachmat Indrajaya said, "In recent years, public interest and awareness of the importance of maintaining health through a balanced diet has increased. Therefore, Olagud is here as an answer to the need for alternative food that is not only delicious but also has health benefits."

Prof. Dr. Drg. Sandra Fikawati, MPH, a public health nutritionist and professor at FKM UI, revealed the importance of consuming animal protein. “Humans need at least 20 types of amino acids or compounds that combine to form proteins. 9 of them are essential amino acids that must be obtained from food. "Even though humans can get protein from plant protein, animal protein contains more complete essential amino acids."

Olagud chickens are cultivated using modern farming methods which are equipped with biosecurity and other supporting facilities to ensure the health and welfare of the chickens. Cultivated with strict quality control, Olagud chicken successfully entered the Singapore market in mid-2023.
 
Andre Sibuea, Marketing Manager of Olagud, stated, "Olagud offers convenience to consumers by providing a variety of products from fresh chicken to ready-to-eat options. For example, in the fresh chicken category alone, Olagud offers choices ranging from whole probiotic chickens to various cuts to suit consumer needs. For those who prefer ready-to-eat probiotic chicken, Olagud offers variants such as Roasted Chicken and Olagud Sous Vide. This makes it an ideal choice for consumers looking to maintain a healthy lifestyle."
 
Currently, Olagud is available in the Greater Jakarta area and can be found in various supermarkets like Meat Market, Ranch Market, Farmers, AEON, Grand Lucky, Foodhall, Lottemart, and Market City. Additionally, Olagud can be ordered online through JAPFA Food's official online store accounts on Tokopedia, Shopee, and Blibli.
