Olga Wodzýnska – Head of the broiler department
Olga’s journey with De Heus Poland began long before she officially joined the company. As a livestock breeder, she used De Heus feed products and attended several company-organised meetings. When she decided to move on from breeding, applying to De Heus felt like the perfect next step.
