Hubbard appoints Emeric Denieul as Product Manager for Premium Range
Denieul steps into the role following the retirement of longtime manager Claude Toudic.
FRANCE – Poultry breeding company Hubbard has announced the appointment of Emeric Denieul as Product Manager for its Premium Range, succeeding Claude Toudic, who retired on June 30, 2025.
Denieul will report directly to Roberto Yamawaki, the company’s Global Technical Director, as he assumes responsibility for managing the global performance and nutritional oversight of Hubbard’s Premium breeder and broiler lines.
A graduate of AgroParisTech in 2018, Denieul holds a Bachelor of Science in Animal Production and has built a career that bridges both technical and field operations within the poultry sector.
He began his professional journey at Eureden as a Poultry Nutritionist, where he handled nutrition programs for broilers, turkeys, ducks, broiler breeders, and layers.
His experience in that role allowed him to engage directly with farmers and develop practical expertise in feed formulation and nutritional management while collaborating with feed manufacturers on optimizing production outcomes.
In 2022, Denieul joined Hubbard, taking on responsibilities related to broiler breeder selection and technical support across several European markets, including France, Italy, Switzerland, and Belgium.
During his time with the company, he also worked alongside then-Global Technical Director James Bentley to oversee nutrition monitoring for breeder and broiler flocks across the Europe, Middle East, and Africa (EMEA) region.
That collaboration particularly centered on the Premium Range, where Denieul contributed to technical support and nutrition strategies aligned with Hubbard’s customer operations.
A structured transition took place in early 2025 as Denieul prepared to take over from Toudic, allowing for a smooth handover of responsibilities before Toudic’s official retirement.
In his new role, Denieul will be tasked with collecting, analyzing, and reporting performance data from field operations to Hubbard’s R&D, Technical, and Commercial departments.
These insights will help guide the company’s decisions on product improvement and future development within the Premium portfolio.
Yamawaki noted that Denieul has played a key role in supporting customers and fine-tuning nutritional practices since joining Hubbard, citing his experience as instrumental in maintaining strong ties with industry partners.
With his appointment now confirmed, Denieul is expected to continue strengthening Hubbard’s approach to data-driven management and product performance across global markets.
Toudic’s retirement concludes a long tenure within the company, marking a generational shift in leadership for Hubbard’s Premium Range segment.
