Sustainability
At Premier Meats, we proactively adopt sustainability practices that make a significant impact.
In 2023, we invested in a major solar project that involved installing 600 solar panels across our facilities. This initiative has contributed significantly to our operational efficiency and resilience as an SA meat wholesaler in the face of South Africa’s energy challenges.
In addition to energy and water conservation, we actively engage in waste management by recycling all our plastic and cardboard waste. This commitment has dramatically reduced the volume of waste we send to local landfills.
Through these targeted initiatives, Premier Meats aims to lessen its environmental footprint and set an industry benchmark for sustainable practices in meat processing.
