1. About VanDrie Group
VanDrie Group is the world's largest veal (veel) production group based in the Netherlands. The biggest feature is that we have built a consistent management system (integration) that completes everything from the farm to the table within the Group.
・Main features and strengths
Integrated Chain Management: All processes are carried out by the Group's companies, from the purchase and rearing of calves, to the production of feed (calf milk), slaughtering, processing, and sales. This ensures extremely high traceability.
Safety Guard: The Group has implemented its own strict quality assurance system, "Safety Guard", and is based on international standards such as ISO 22000 to ensure food safety, animal welfare, and environmental management.
Animal Welfare Considerations: We focus on creating a stress-free and healthy environment for calves, such as spacious barns, group keeping, and natural light.
Sustainability: We promote circular agriculture by reducing waste and making effective use of dairy by-products (such as whey) as feed.
