Our Business

We are a family run business with more than 40 years of heritage and expertise.

We supply only 100% high quality British beef, sourced from our trusted farming partners and distributed to retailers, butchers and foodservice professionals across the world. And because we know our cattle and our farming partners, we can guarantee the highest quality beef is produced for all requirements.

Established in 2004, beef processing was a natural progression from the family business of farming and livestock trading. Three generations of Pickstock continue to run day-to-day operations, introducing pioneering new processes into our farm and meat processing facilities alongside our broader team of experts.

Brongain Farm is our centre of excellence for the farming community and industry bodies to learn, share and create new ideas. We are leaders in our field, spearheading the use of the latest farming techniques centred around four core areas; animal welfare, genetics, environmental footprint, and financial sustainability.

Aiming for Net Zero by 2030, we are trailing commercially viable practices, allowing producers to see how they can incorporate sustainable methods on their own farms.
