- Lambs are mostly grass-fed. The little supplementary feed that is used is regulated by the group reducing the effects that some animal feed can have on palatability.
- Male lambs are castrated, eliminating the risk of ram taint, which can negatively affect taste.
- All lambs are fasted and rested prior to slaughter – reducing stress and enhancing the meat colour.
- Post-slaughter, all lambs are matured for a minimum of 7 days. This is longer than the industry norm and leads to more tender meat.

- All lambs are cut to customer specification and vac packed. The vac pack used is 2/3 times thicker than industry norm, preventing punctures and reducing the risk of freezer burn when product is frozen. We offer full or half lamb options.
- All lambs are traceable from farm to fork and each vac pack is labelled accordingly.
- All farmers supplying to group belong to the Bord Bia Lamb Quality Assurance Scheme.
- Deliveries are made direct to the customer’s door in our own refrigerated van or in a special chill box. Nationwide deliveries are made via courier.
