At National Beef^®, we source our hides from a select group of Midwest ranchers– most within a 300-mile radius of our plants– to reduce the amount of stress on the animal and natural resources used to move them. Effective rancher alliances strengthen not just the quality of our products, but provide a common commitment to good stewardship of the land, the cattle, and to our shared environmental responsibility. And our advanced tanning process allows us to monitor the amount of water leaving our facility and energy we use. At National Beef, we’re focused on sustainability and doing the right thing for our planet.
