Calf husbandry
The calves of the VanDrie Group originate exclusively from controlled farms. The number of calf-husbandry operations under the company's own control continues to grow and currently numbers over 1000.
The VanDrie Group is a fervent supporter of loose housing. All our calves are accommodated in groups in spacious, well-ventilated and well-lit stables.
Specialised supervisors support the farmer in his work. Ongoing research is yielding the latest ideas, which are then put into practice on the farms. Modern management systems ensure the consistently high quality of the product. The Controlled Quality Veal logo is guaranteed by our own umbrella quality system, Safety Guard. The EC-accredited Stichting Kwaliteitsgarantie Vleeskalversector [Veal Sector Quality Guarantee Foundation (SKV)] carries out strict controls on prohibited substances.
