Creekstone Farms Premium Beef enters JV with Pasture One

US-based beef and pork supplier Creekstone Farms Premium Beef has entered a joint venture (JV) with Californian beef supplier Pasture One.

The new JV would see a considerable growth of Creekstone Farm’s product line and Pasture One’s distribution capabilities.

Both companies look forward to develop production and sales relationships where Creekstone Farms will process Pasture One’s cattle, and sales staff from both firms will be focusing on selling boxed beef products.

Pasture One CEO Peter Hausin said: “The Temple Grandin designed facility and third-party humane certifications were exactly what we were looking for in a processor for our cattle. Creekstone Farms is well-aligned with the Pasture One mission.”

Pasture One claims that they offer quality and domestic grass-fed beef to the market and follows holistic ranching practices.

The company is fully transitioning its production to the Creekstone Farms processing facility in Arkansas City, Kansas.

Creekstone Farms sales and marketing vice-president Jim Rogers said: “The Pasture One line of grass-fed beef complements our current product offerings while extending the depth of our variety with a beef product that our customers are looking for.

“We were looking for a great quality, consistent grass-fed programme and found it with Pasture One.”

The Pasture One grass-fed beef line will be included in Creekstone’s existing product portfolio such as conventionally raised/fed, antibiotic-free, and non-GMO raised and fed beef.
