Small Farms, Big Ideas
It seems like more and more of us are asking ourselves a basic question that many of our teachers used to ask us in grade school: Where does our food come from? Sometimes what we learn is incredibly reassuring. Other times the reality isn’t appetizing at all.
When it comes to quality assurance and food safety, animal well-being and natural resource conservation, our practices say a lot about our company’s values. Our guiding principle is simple: if you do the right thing, success will follow.
For Maple Leaf Farms, we’ve made a genuine commitment to do these things and do them well through years of progress and improvement. We’ve invested in our employees and in our capabilities across the organization. We’ve asked more of the farm families we partner with. We’ve tapped outside animal science experts to help us understand best practices and develop our own Duck Well-Being Guidelines and audit procedures. And we’ve never lost focus of the belief that doing the right thing means you can always do better.
All that we do in quality assurance, animal well-being and natural resource conservation ensures we have a company, employees and products we’re proud of. Today we have farms and facilities that are rigorously guarded from outside health threats. And we have an environmental ethic that respects and seeks to reduce our impact on the land, air and water in the communities where we work and live. This comprehensive system is called the Trident Stewardship Program.
We’ll never be bashful about telling you where our duck comes from.
