SINGAPORE - Media OutReach - 29 August 2019 - UFarm's
Benja Chicken, the world's first brown rice-fed chicken, is now in Singapore!
Hailing from Thailand, this 100% natural product boasts a rich flavour profile,
and is more tender and juicier than the market's chicken meat by up to 55%. The
brand's offerings are wildly popular in Thailand and are preferred by chefs of Michelin-starred
restaurants such as Saneh Jaan, Siam Wisdom and Paste.
UFarm's
Benja Chicken uses an innovative animal feed to raise its chickens. The formula
comprises specially selected brown rice grains, which are rich in
Gamma-Aminobutyric acid, antioxidants and vitamins B3, B6 and B9. It also helps
to strengthen the chickens' muscle structure. No growth hormone or antibiotic
is added to the feed, which has been certified by the American NSF
International.
UFarm's
Benja Chicken has chosen Singapore as the first country outside Thailand to
launch its products. Mr Prasit Boondoungprasert, Chief Operating Officer of
Charoen Pokphand Foods Public Co., Ltd., who created "Benja Chicken" under
the U-Farm brand, says, "Today's consumers focus on the quality of ingredients
they use to prepare meals. The ingredients must be natural, delicious and
healthy. Keeping this in mind, we set out to launch 'Benja Chicken', a line of
chicken products that is different from the current market offerings. It meets
the lifestyle needs of modern families, who place an emphasis on food safety
and premium taste. In the pipeline, the brand will launch even more products
that meet the sophisticated demands of consumers."
