Scotch.
There's so much more behind the mark...
What is Scotch?
It's the meat only ever born & reared in Scotland.
The Scottish red meat industry's three premium brands—Scotch Beef UK GI, Scotch Lamb UK GI, and Specially Selected Pork—require livestock to be born, raised, and processed in Scotland, spending their entire lives on Quality Meat Scotland Assured farms. This ensures the quality and integrity of our products for people to trust and enjoy.
Each product that features one of the premium brand logos guarantees:
Whole-of-life care
Whole chain assurance
Full traceability
Scottish farmers dedicate themselves to a craft rooted in tradition and quality, raising livestock that carry our prestigious standards.
This passion for excellence ensures that every cut of meat is a testament to their unmatched commitment and dedication. Dedicated people in our whole supply chain are the linchpin when it comes to producing always traceable, local and quality assured meat.
We emphasise the importance of whole supply chain traceability in red meat production in Scotland – and how traceability from farm to fork is important not only to protect animal health and welfare, but also to ensure sustainability right across the full spectrum of Scottish livestock production.
Red meat is a sustainable food source. Only ruminants are able to transform grass and forage land into food for us, such as dairy and meat, and there is a large amount of marginal grassland which can’t be used for anything other than livestock grazing.
Our promise is more than a mark, it represents peace of mind, pride of place and perfection in taste.
So, the next time you’re outside, barbecuing under your brolly, you can relax knowing you’ve chosen
premium meat, with higher standards.
Scotch. The meat that makes a good meal great.
You can always purchase Scotch Beef, Scotch Lamb or Specially Selected Pork at your nearest Scotch Butchers Club approved store.
