BEEF PROCESSORS AND ENTHUSIASTS WITH A PASSION FOR
HIGH-QUALITY BEEF
Our vision: high-quality, responsible beef at affordable rates. A promise we deliver on through our transparent working methods. We maintain direct contact with our certified slaughterhouses and try to keep the lines of communication as short as possible. That’s what we call responsible business practices. To achieve this, we also look beyond borders. After all, our cattle originate from all over Europe. We always keep animal well-being in mind. After all, if a cow has had a good life, you can taste it!

We only purchase dairy cows. These animals supply both milk and meat, serving a dual purpose. All other alternatives are bred 100% for their meat. As a result, meat production based on dairy cows has the lowest water and CO2 footprint in the entire meat industry.
Our factory is situated in Enschede, in the Twente region. This is our production location and from here, we cater to all our customers, in Europe and all over the world. Through our factory stores in Enschede, Hengelo and Arnhem, we have made our products accessible to consumers.

HORIZONTAL ORGANISATION
with short lines of communication
The daily production and commercial management of our entire organisation is handled by a handful of people. You might think that online communication and digitisation in general could lead to a less personal approach. However, if you have any questions or complaints or if you reach out to us by phone, you’ll always encounter the same people. Beimer has been in the meat industry for over 65 years. We are serious about our profession and respect humans and animals. We’re all highly committed to the company and are truly passionate about our work. Our down-to-earth Twente character and no-nonsense approach are our greatest strengths.
