CHAE Weekly spoke with Kenneth Chan, Senior Marketing & Business Development Manager, who shared insights into Aurum Poultry and the inspiration behind their collaboration with Chae.
Please tell us about Aurum Poultry Co.
Aurum Poultry Co. was founded in 1999, by brothers Sam and Danny Wong, who wanted to bring the poultry dishes of their childhood in Vietnam to Australian plates. They were joined by Company Director Henning Skallebaek, a veteran duck farmer whose focus lay in artisanal farming approaches; the company is committed to sustainable farming practices. Working with hand-picked local family farms across Australia, they work together to produce refined specialty poultry products. Its signature slow-grown Fook Wook Cockerel, raised for 100+ days, offers a defined texture and authentic flavour, with a 'gai' reminiscent of poultry of their native Vietnam and at the Asian countries.
