Cape Grim Beef Ranchers
Tasmania provides the perfect conditions for Never Ever cattle. Ranches here are generally small, and run by families who care for their animals with the highest standards.
This makes it possible for Cape Grim Beef to source cattle from a select group of close to 1800 Never Ever ranches across the state.
Further, ranchers are selected on cattle breeding, and genetic criteria that deliver the most consistent eating quality. Their farms are located in the highest rainfall areas of Tasmania, producing the lushest, most consistent fodder available.
Between our dedication to sustainability and one of the world’s most comprehensive traceability systems, every cut of Cape Grim beef can be traced back to the rancher who produced it, and the lands that nourished it. The presence of Cape Grim signs on farm gates throughout Tasmania reflects the pride our ranchers have in producing a superior brand of beef.
The use of hormones, genetically modified organisms (GMOs) and antibiotics are not permitted in Tasmanian beef farming. Producers readily understand that consumers can instantly connect with Cape Grim’s remote location, sustainable farming practices and ideal grazing conditions, enhancing Tasmania’s reputation as a world leader in successful local food systems.
Our ranchers have known for decades that their grass fed beef is special, but now they participate in the network from producer to processor to chef to diner.
We are very pleased that we can provide this high quality, tender beef to discerning global consumers - it will change the way people think about the beef they eat and where it comes from.
