Meatco’s Livestock Production and Value-Addition Department has devised a robust strategy to buy cattle from all Namibian farmers with marketable cattle.
According to Meatco, it is important for the company to sustainably service its local and international markets alike.
“Although producers are restocking after the good rains received this season, we cannot ignore our clients’ need to receive products that are of the highest quality,” the company said.
The department aims to buy animals from communal and commercial farmers through strategically devised platforms, such as permit days scheduled in the communal areas, which allow for mass gatherings where the department can buy many animals.
