Quality assured red meat, born and reared in Scotland

Our brands offer consumers peace of mind

To carry the QMS industry branding, Scotch Beef UK GI, Scotch Lamb UK GI and Specially Selected Pork must be born, reared and processed in Scotland.

Scotch Quality Assured meat also means that the animals that the meat has come from have been raised to the highest welfare standards. The Scottish SPCA (Scotland’s Animal Welfare Charity) independently inspects farms to ensure these standards are being maintained.

Scotch Beef and Scotch Lamb both proudly hold UK GI status, legally protecting the brands from imitation. UK GI status is only granted when a product fully satisfies strict guidelines which demand a link between the traditions and environment of the country of origin, and a product which is of the highest quality.
