PIC Latinoamérica (Chile) is the Latin American regional operation of PIC (Pig Improvement Company), the swine genetics division of the British company Genus PLC. Based in Huechuraba, Chile, the unit serves pig producers across Latin America with breeding stock, genetic improvement programs and technical support. Its stated mission is to make its customers the most successful pork producers in the world, an ambition it pursues by investing in better pigs and improving them every day. The organization's philosophy is captured in the phrase "Never stop improving." PIC applies science and economics to breeding, combining advanced science with a practical understanding of pig biology and producer needs. It selects commercially relevant traits that meet market demands and invests in population size, differentiated germplasm, better data capture and improved algorithms to accelerate genetic gain. These improvements are applied across multiple pure lines to develop products tailored to different production systems and breeding objectives. PIC Latinoamérica markets a portfolio of terminal sires and maternal lines. Flagship products include the PIC 800 terminal sire, marketed for robust, high-performing pigs with industry-leading growth rate, feed efficiency and robustness; the PIC Camborough, a robust and efficient sow with fewer non-productive days; the PIC 337, described as the world's leading and best-selling sire, known for maximizing value; and the PIC 410, a terminal sire producing exceptional primary cut yield and carcass value. Products are selected on total economic value, with the aim of contributing to the pork production chain. Beyond genetics, PIC offers technical support combining strategies and tactics adapted to customer needs, and provides resources such as tools, guides and articles from its technical team. Producers gain access to a global team of experts who help them maximize the value of their business.
