Meatco urges speedy delivery
Meatco has urged producers, especially those living in the Windhoek area, to ensure that delivery trucks arrive at the abattoir early due to the wintertime adjustment.
Producers are requested to not take advantage of their distance from the abattoir to travel late in the afternoon since unforeseen incidents can occur.
According to company it will only make exceptions for breakdowns and other incidents that have been communicated to the service office in advance.
“It is the responsibility of the producer to ensure all relevant, valid documents accompany the delivery truck.”
All documents must be completed correctly and signed off by the producer or his representative, before departing from the farm of origin.
Incomplete documentation might result in animals to be sent back to the farm of origin. The 90/40 days report must also be attached as proof of verification and must accompany the delivery truck. Furthermore, Meatco says it is imperative that producers themselves complete the movement permits and that each permit includes a separate departure form.
Producers are urged to read their booking confirmation documentation as well as the sales advice for more information. Finally, producers are cautioned against the delivery of sick animals to the abattoir as well as those with other conditions such as injection marks and those without ear tags.
