The takeover target is an Egyptian company listed on the Cairo & Alexandria Stock Exchanges.
The bid of E£70 a share has to be accepted before 18 May.
Ismailiya Misr Arabian Poultry will accept a 51 per cent controlling stake in its takeover target if it fails to secure 100 per cent of the equity.

Prices for both poultry and eggs have soared in Egypt since the beginning of the year, adding to the pressure on inflation driven by rising wheat prices.
