NEW ZEALAND LAMB
New Zealand is the world’s largest exporter of sheepmeat and we
have been exporting lamb since 1882.
New Zealand lamb is raised completely naturally. Our flocks graze on
open meadows, enjoying a diet of lush pasture, they are free-range
grown and free from all additives.
The high rainfall, rich soils and gentle climate, mild winters and long
warm summers, allow animals to live outdoors all year-round. Food
supplimants common elsewhere in the world are unnecessary in New
Zealand, as grass is available all year round.
AFFCO’s LAMB is LEAN, NUTRIENT-RICH and NATURAL
TAKING PREMIUM NEW ZEALAND
