How we assure quality

One chain, one quality system

Rearing, feeding, slaughter, cutting, processing and packing all take place inside our own group, under one management.

Traceability to flock, farm and feed lot

Every batch is labelled so that within hours we can tell which flock, which farm and which feed lot it came from.

Unbroken cold chain

Chilled meat is held at 0–4 °C and frozen at −18 °C, from line to truck. Deliveries run on our own refrigerated logistics.

Compliant labelling

Labelling complies with Regulation (EU) No 1169/2011 on food information to consumers. Artwork, declarations and logistic data sheets are prepared in-house.

Animal welfare

Broilers are reared on litter, with enough space, light and fresh air. Ducks, geese and roosters have outdoor access. We regularly check every partner farm.
