Australian Meats is the world’s largest retail distributor of Australian kangaroo and wild game meat. Based in South Australia, our family owned and operated business is the pinnacle of quality standards for naturally harvested game meats. With a long history in innovation and excellence, Australian Meats is committed to uncompromising produce that is wild harvested.
Carefully selecting untouched Australian environments that are rich in native vegetation and abiding by our most stringent quality, ethical and environmentally sustainable processes, Australian Meats are able to ensure consistent, premium game meat not found anywhere else. As the animals are wild harvested in their own environment, this not only reduces stress on the animal
but produces tender, lean and quality meats rich in flavour, taste and texture.
The Australian kangaroo and game meat industry upholds some of the strictest health and safety standards in the world in the transport, storage and treatment of animal products. All harvested kangaroos and wild game are processed for meat in government-licenced plants dedicated to game meat processing and are inspected by government or third-party meat assessors. The final product is then subject to micro-biological monitoring to ensure it meets government standards for safety.
Australian Meats continue to communicate it's ongoing commitment to ethical sourcing and the environmental benefits of consuming naturally harvested meats. Allowing kangaroos to live in their natural habitat rather than confined on farms is better for the animals and better for the natural ecosystem. Importantly, if kangaroo populations were allowed to spiral out of control, many more would die of starvation during times of drought.
Reinforcing the Australian Meats brand promise of being 100% Australian - Demonstrating the proof of this promise will be critical in maintaining the brand’s cultural positioning as an important access point for both customers who enjoy the product range and the communities that naturally harvest the meats. With a branded approach to how Australian Meats also fosters its community of customers, including wholesale customers, we provide the greatest opportunity to build brand loyalty.
