Why WAMMCO is the ‘Future of Sheep’ in Western Australia

Despite the broad anxiety caused by the impending cessation of live sheep exporting, WAMMCO is incredibly buoyant about the future of the WA sheep meat industry.

This is evidenced by the fact that we are re-investing $50m to dramatically increase throughput and booking space for our members.

The co-operative is in the enviable position of having more demand for its product than supply. Our 23% ownership of ‘The Lamb Company – North America’, gives us access to lucrative US and global supermarket chains, including COSTCO and Loblaws. The Lamb Company has food service centres in Los Angeles, New Jersey and Toronto, and a turnover in excess of $US1 billion per annum.

Along with our 100% ownership of NSW lamb and mutton processor, Southern Meats, we supply more than 55 countries worldwide with a diversified range of products and process in excess of 2.2 million head per annum.

Our members have enjoyed bonus payments in excess of $63m since 2013, as well as highly competitive market rates.

If you’re not already a WAMMCO member, we would love to have you along for the journey.
