Quality Assurance

Our food manufacturing teams ensure that all ingredients are handled and packed with the utmost care, preserving the quality and integrity of the products. They adhere to strict hygiene standards, and sophisticated processing techniques are instrumental in maintaining the products' high standard.

Our Commitment to Animal Welfare

Our animals are grass-fed and can roam & graze freely, living as they would naturally, reducing stress & promoting better animal welfare. Silver Fern Farms complies with the New Zealand government’s legislative requirements as laid out in the Animal Welfare Act of 1999.

We have comprehensive systems and policies in place to ensure welfare of animals throughout our chain of care. Our processing sites abide by strict animal welfare policies and operate a humane slaughter program to ensure stress to animals is minimised. The Ministry of Primary Industries (MPI) certifies our products against these requirements.
