Dedication to Food Safety goes well beyond industry standards for cleaner, safer beef. The National Beef® Biologic® Food Safety System employs a "clean room" mindset that incorporates a three-tiered safety system.
Our employees are trained and committed to maintaining the critical practices necessary to provide consistent and safe beef.
We use over 14 processing interventions to manage pathogens and control micro counts which help us go beyond traditional HACCP, SOP and GMP procedures.
Our six zones allow us to continually and effectively monitor, assess and control product safety in each zone.
At National Beef, Food Safety is our top priority. Through the series of videos below, you'll gain insight into the procedures and processes that help us deliver the cleanest, and safest beef possible.

Delivering safe beef is made possible by maintaining our processing interventions. Watch the video to learn more about how we accomplish this every day.
Organizing each of our plants into six biologic safety zones allow us to monitor all of our processes and procedures within each area. Watch the video and see why our zone system works so effectively.
Our ground beef production is housed in zone 1 to ensure the strictest control and highest level of biologic protection. See how we continue to bring you the safest beef possible in our Ground Beef Zone video.
Our control and assessment protocol allows us to provide cleaner, safer beef for our customers. Watch the video to see how we apply these assessment checks in each of our plants.
While our Biologic program is proprietary, it meets or exceeds world-wide standards established by the Global Food Safety Initiative.
And to deliver assurance that we are implementing our stringent standards, our facilities are audited and accredited by the British Retail Consortium (BRC).
