About Favorit Geflügel

Favorit Geflügel AG is a Swiss poultry specialist based in Lyss (Canton of Bern). Founded in 1965 by Werner Lätt senior in Kappelen (BE), the company processes and refines Swiss chicken by hand in the manner of a manufactory. The range comprises more than 300 items, including whole chickens, chicken breast, chicken legs, chicken skewers, chicken wings, sliced strips and chicken sausage, as well as numerous seasonal specialties such as stuffed poultry rolls or chicken breast with wild garlic marinade. All products are refined by hand and calibrated with a cutting technique specially tailored to butchers and gastronomy specialists. Chickens are processed under the Swiss Premium Chicken (BTS), Suisse Garantie and Bio Suisse labels; packaging is chilled, frozen, modified atmosphere (MAP) and vacuum. Core strengths are small-batch production and fine logistics for major customers, comestibles partners, butcheries, resellers and retailers. As of 1 October 2025, Favorit Geflügel AG with around 50 employees was acquired by Bigler AG Fleischwaren.
