About Us

Creating Goodness from the Farms the World Needs

Established in 1948, Silver Fern Farms is a market-led food company, supplying nutritious and delicious, sustainably and ethically raised grass-fed red meat and other natural products, from Aotearoa to the world. We are New Zealand’s leading processor, marketer and exporter of premium quality lamb, beef and venison and associated products to over 60 global markets.

We are deeply connected to the rural communities of New Zealand. In peak season, we employ over 6,000 people globally and connect to a network of over 16,000 farmer suppliers nationwide.

We are committed to doing good by nature and creating a nature positive future, enabled by a clear and enduring sustainability plan. n

Sustainability

Doing good is part of who we are.

Good for people and place

At Silver Fern Farms, we embed sustainability into all we do. Our commitment, and follow-through, on sustainability issues is a key way we’re making sure we do the right thing by our customers who increasingly want to know that their red meat is sustainably produced.

Our Sustainability Action Plan

The Sustainability Action Plan focuses on the issues that matter most to our stakeholders (identified through our Materiality process). As part of the Sustainability Action Plan, we have launched a number of important initiatives and can build on good results.
