Animal welfare
ANIMAL WELFARE FORMS A SIGNIFICANT ASPECT OF CONDUCTING OUR BUSINESS OPERATIONS WITH INTEGRITY. WE DEDICATE OURSELVES TO THE HUMANE TREATMENT OF OUR CATTLE ACROSS THE SUPPLY CHAIN, ENSURING ANIMAL WELFARE CONSTITUTES A CORE RESPONSIBILITY FOR ALL INVOLVED IN ANIMAL HANDLING.
OUR STATE-OF-THE-ART FEEDLOTS PROVIDE ABUNDANT RESOURCES FOR OUR GRAIN-FED PROGRAM. THE ANIMALS RECEIVE LOCALLY GROWN AND CAREFULLY TAILORED AND BALANCED RATIONS. IN PARALLEL, OUR GRASS-FED PROGRAM IS DESIGNED TO FEED OUR CATTLE WITH HIGH-QUALITY PASTURE IN OUR PRISTINE LAND. WE ALSO PRIDE OURSELVES IN NEVER ADMINISTERING ADDED HORMONES FROM BIRTH TO SLAUGHTER. ANTIBIOTICS ARE NOT USED AT ANY POINT IN THE PROCESS UNLESS PRESCRIBED BY A VETERINARY FOR TREATMENT OF A SPECIFIC CASE. A TRULY NATURAL PRODUCT RAISED NATURALLY.

WE UNDERSTAND ANIMALS, THEIR BEHAVIOURS AND PERCEPTION OF THEIR SURROUNDINGS SO, WE KNOW HOW TO RAISE THEM IN A CARING WAY. OUR HARVEST PLANT DESIGNS AND METHODS ARE CREATED TO ELIMINATE STRESS AND FEAR DURING THE SLAUGHTER PROCESS.
