TADICO: A Flagship of Food Security and a Regional Hub for Livestock Expertise Export
During a visit to TADICO Holding, Mohammadreza Saeedi, CEO of Shasta, highlighted the strategic role of the company in strengthening the nation’s food and social security. He emphasized the need to move beyond traditional business models and transition toward an innovation-driven ecosystem, identifying the export of technology, management expertise, and genetic know-how as key pillars of TADICO’s international expansion across Eurasian markets.
According to TADICO:
During the recent visit of Mohammadreza Saeedi, CEO of Shasta, to TADICO Holding, the company’s performance and development plans were reviewed and evaluated. The meeting underscored TADICO’s vital position within the food supply chain and its significant contribution to sustainable employment generation and the enhancement of social security.
Referring to TADICO’s role beyond conventional production activities, Saeedi stated:
“TADICO’s future development must be built upon modern technologies. By leveraging advanced knowledge and innovation, we should move toward a more sophisticated and industrialized livestock sector. Through improving key indicators such as extending the productive lifespan of livestock and implementing scientific feed management practices, we can achieve maximum efficiency and sustainable profitability.”
Outlining TADICO’s future roadmap, he added:
“You are evolving into a regional livestock genetics center. This means that TADICO is no longer merely a producer—it is becoming a technology holder. This creates a valuable opportunity to document accumulated experience, transform it into technical knowledge, and ultimately provide training and commercialize that expertise.”
Saeedi also stressed the importance of redefining the company’s international strategy, noting:
“TADICO’s internationalization should not be limited to product exports. We must actively pursue the export of technical services, management expertise, and livestock genetics. With the valuable genetic resources and capabilities at your disposal, opportunities for joint ventures, licensing agreements, and entry into neighboring markets—including Türkiye and the Eurasian region—are well within reach.”
Another key topic discussed during the visit was reducing dependence on imported agricultural inputs as a strategic priority. Emphasizing the importance of technical and climatic assessments in managing feed and input production, the CEO of Shasta stated:
“In every negotiation and exhibition, our focus should be on technology transfer. Traditional business operations alone are no longer sufficient. To ensure long-term sustainability and value creation, we must concentrate on building a dynamic, knowledge-based ecosystem.”
The visit opened new horizons for TADICO’s managers and specialists, encouraging them to accelerate the company’s innovation-driven transformation and growth trajectory by leveraging the strategic guidance provided by Shasta’s senior leadership.
As TADICO continues its evolution from a leading livestock producer into a center of innovation, genetics, and technical expertise, it is positioning itself as a key contributor to food security and agricultural development both domestically and across regional markets.
