All our lambs are only from the Hawkes Bay region
This makes Hawke’s Bay Natural Lamb one of the only pure brands of provenance.
We have created this to minimises transport times, reduce stress levels and improve animal welfare to create what we believe is a better eating and tasting range of lamb cuts. All our supplying properties are farm assured with best verified animal welfare and farming practises as well as being antibiotic free.
Hawke's Bay is a powerhouse
When it comes to the primary producing regions of New Zealand. Its temperate climate and fertile soils make it ideal for growing a wide variety of produce, and in particular livestock, all year round because of the warm winters.
Farm Assurance
Davmet is a shareholder member of New Zealand Farm Assurance Incorporated, an organisation that sets best farming practice standards. All lambs packed to HBNL are from Farm Assured suppliers.
The standards cover all aspects of farming including origin and animal traceability, farm inputs, security and food safety, animal health, welfare, and production management.
All HBNL supplying farms are independently audited by QCONZ, whom are JAS-ANZ accredited and ISO certified, meaning you can be sure our farm practises are among the best in the world.
