The recent partnership between local company KPP Powers Commodities and AVAC Vietnam Joint Stock Company marked an important milestone in the country’s ongoing struggle against the African Swine Fever epidemic. With their agreement now formalized, KPP Powers is now the exclusive distributor of AVAC’s ASF Live Vaccine, which is the only product of its kind with government authorization for export and a duly approved Certificate of Product Registration from Vietnam.

“Countless farms have been forced out of operation, leaving thousands of farmers and affiliated hog industry workers without any source of livelihood,” said KPP Powers Managing Director Juancho Robles. “ASF has brought about a crisis of vast proportions. It has become a matter of national food security, and thus requires an urgent and imperative response,” he emphasized.

Robles is confident, however, that the AVAC ASF Live Vaccine’s successful performance will be replicated in the Philippines. “In Vietnam, repeated farm trials showed that the average protection rate of vaccinated pigs is a very high 95%. This led to the Vietnam government approving the AVAC ASF Live Vaccine for widespread commercial use.
