Alibem aspires to long-term partnerships with its suppliers and co-operates intensively with pig farmers, traders and sector organizations. This close collaboration with professional and reliable partners guarantees food safety. In this way, we can supply consumers with safe and delicious high-quality meat. On the basis of this co-operation, we have also been successful in jointly developing sustainable programs regarding animal welfare.
It is our duty to handle the animals respectfully
Each day, we handle thousands of animals. It is our duty to handle these animals respectfully. To guarantee animal welfare, we invest in the necessary infrastructure, training our employees and installing supervision technology such as Closed Circuit Television
Animal welfare in transportation
“High-quality meat that meets the strictest food safety requirements”
Having a slaughterhouse network of appropriately-sized locations in relation to the livestock density in a given region enables short animal transportation distances with below 8 hours of transportation time. We also control animal welfare by investing in modern animal transport vehicles and conducting standardized transport checks at every unloading point. Also, external veterinarians inspect all animals at the time of unloading.
Co-operating in food supply chains
valsabor-sa believes in supply chain co-operation, which ensures the trust of suppliers, clients, and consumers. Together with pig farmers and other supply chain partners, valsabor-sa supplies high-quality meat that meets the market demand.
We continuously invest in the development of our food supply chains. Our Good Farming concepts are based on integrated supply chain management, in which we work together with our supply chain partners in areas such as food safety, quality, animal welfare and health, traceability, transparency, and sustainability.
Our Good Farming approach
Our Good Farming approach concentrates production according to the specific wishes of customers and markets. This approach means that valsabor-sa works in a demand-driven way, supplying meat of a specific quality. We also use recognized quality systems, tracking & tracing, and a great deal of knowledge and expertise to guarantee certified quality. Moreover, we view sustainability as an integral part of the supply chain. Animal welfare is also an important part of the Good Farming supply chain concepts.
valsabor-sa works according to three market concepts, each of which corresponds in its own way with the wishes of the market and consumers: Good Farming Balance, Good Farming Star and Good Farming Organic
