Our Cape Grim Farmers
We are very proud of the select group of farmers that supply us with the beef used for our Cape Grim Tasmanian Natural Beef cuts.
It is a key group of 40 beef farmers, all based in the north west of Tasmania. They are required to meet stringent quality and processing standards set by Meat Standards Australia and supply meat exclusively to us.
Our Cape Grim producers are selected on cattle breeding and genetic pointers which deliver the most consistent eating quality.
Their farms are located in the highest rainfall areas of Tasmania, delivering the highest and most consistent fodder growth available.
The use of hormones, genetically modified organisims (GMOs) and antibiotics are not permitted in Tasmanian beef farming, creating the most tender beef on the market today.
Our farmers have known for decades that their grass fed beef is special, but until now it has only been available to the export market. We are very pleased that we can now provide this high quality, tender beef to Australian consumers - it will change the way people think about the beef they eat.
