Sustainability

How FarmGold sources, stores, and ships its poultry.

Our approach

Three stages we can act on

Sustainability at FarmGold covers the stages between a producer and a kitchen: how poultry is sourced, how it is stored and used, and how it reaches each market.

These are current priorities, not finished programmes. Each one sets what we ask of our producers and distribution partners today.

What we ask of our producers

Traceability starts at the producer, not at the port.

Halal certification, hygiene protocols, and batch records begin at the source. We ask the farming, processing, and logistics partners behind our poultry to document each stage they handle.

Current priorities

  • Supplier recordsDocument the farm, processing, and logistics stages behind each batch.
  • Animal welfareRaise husbandry and welfare standards in supplier reviews.
  • Feed, water, and landCollect producer data on feed, water, and land use.

Protecting food through the cold chain

Frozen poultry stays safe only while the cold chain holds.

Every pack carries a storage temperature and handling instructions. Matching the cut to the dish and following those instructions cuts waste in commercial and home kitchens alike.

Current priorities

  • Cold chainHold -18°C from our cold store to the buyer’s.
  • Cut selectionHelp kitchens match the cut to the dish and plan portions.
  • PackagingReview packaging materials while keeping the barrier frozen food needs.

Working with the partners who move our poultry

Every shipment passes through several hands before it reaches a kitchen.

FarmGold supplies wholesalers in several countries. We work with the cold stores, carriers, and distributors who handle our poultry on the standards each market requires.

Current priorities

  • Long-term supplyAgree repeat terms with buyers rather than one-off shipments.
  • Product informationPublish specifications and handling guidance where buyers can find them.
  • Shipment planningWeigh storage, routing, and waste when planning each shipment.
