Veal Calves Responsibly Raised on Our Corporate & Affiliate Farms


Our parent company, Préval AG, is the largest producer of veal in North America and has invested millions of dollars in industry-leading veal group housing. Here’s how that investment translates to responsibility—as well as quality.

Modern Facilities Designed for Animal Comfort

  • Our facilities are designed for air circulation, natural light and temperature control
  • Calves are never tethered, creating a healthy, low-stress environment

Farm-to-Market Traceability

  • Calves are tracked across the entire supply chain, from farm of origin to final destination

Safe & Comfortable Transportation
