High standards form the bedrock of our industry.
The UK meat industry has some of the highest standards of hygiene and welfare in the world. BMPA and its members are committed to raising the bar and maintaining the UK industry’s international reputation for high standards.
We are very proud of the high standards that we set ourselves and aim to exceed every working day
Julia Hardson,
Quality Director, Scott Beef
We don't just follow standards we also set them.
BMPA owns and manages the Quality Pork Charter, which sets part of the standard for the well-known Red Tractor consumer logo. We also contribute to ongoing Government consultations on all aspects of the transportation, slaughter, cutting and processing operations our members are involved in.
