AGENTS have put an “under offer” sign on the former Bridgewater Poultry Farm.
The possible sale comes more than two years after some buildings on the troubled site were demolished.
Company directors in a June 2022 statement through the  Bozzo Group, a privately held family business with interests in land development, hospitality and agriculture, said: “We are currently in the process of demolishing those sheds on our Fantasy Road site which are past their effective commercial use-by date. 
“Since the salmonella enteritidis was imported from New South Wales to our site we commenced at the time of infection and continue to this day the clean-up of the site with the view to the property being prepared for sale.”
Bridgewater Poultry Farm was purchased in 2005 by a group of egg farmers that had originally operated their own individual farms.  According to the Loddon Valley Eggs website, after an ambitious building program, the original venture had grown and developed to a level where the Loddon Valley, Victorian Fresh and Country Fresh brands were well respected in the box market.
Coles and Woolworths stopped stocking Bridgewater Poultry eggs in March 2018 when a product recall was issued after a salmonella outbreak at the farm. Soon after, Animal Liberation released a video of alleged animal maltreatment practices at the factory and production stopped.
