What we source
Lamb and specialist cheese carry the volume. Beef, pork and poultry, dairy, fruit and vegetables, and Romanian farmland complete the offer.

- Orchard fruit and field vegetables
- Farmland, orchards and agri-investment

Land opportunitiesWhere we supply
Markets served
Three named destination regions, each with its own documentation regime. Further markets by arrangement.
European Union
Greece, Italy, Germany, Spain, Croatia and the wider Balkans
The core lane. Goods move in free circulation within the single market: no border health certificate and no SPS inspection between member states. Largest lamb volume, plus the diaspora cheese markets in Germany, Spain and Italy.
Requires EU-approved establishment and identification mark; TRACES intra-Union certification for live animals.
United Kingdom
England, Scotland, Wales, Northern Ireland
Post-Brexit third country and the higher-friction lane. Served, and well suited to specialist cheese wholesalers and affineurs as well as diaspora wholesale.
Export Health Certificate signed by an official veterinarian, IPAFFS pre-notification by the UK importer, and Border Control Post checks.
Middle East / GCC
Select GCC markets, subject to current health status
Highest per-unit lamb value and strong premium cheese demand for retail and hotel supply. Live-export interest is real but exposed to disease-status suspensions.
Export Health Certificate plus halal certification. Access is subject to current animal health status and any market suspension in force — we will not quote a market that is closed.
Further markets by arrangement. Other destinations can be considered on request. We will confirm the documentation regime and whether a compliant route exists before committing to supply — we do not pre-commit to a certification regime that is not yet in place.
- Meat importers & abattoirs — Greece, Italy, Croatia and the Balkans — carcass and cut programmes, season-led volume.
- Ethnic & diaspora wholesalers — Germany, Spain, the UK and Italy — lamb plus telemea and cașcaval in retail-ready formats.
- Specialty cheese wholesalers & affineurs — UK and London — small-dairy sheep cheese, sampled before commitment.
- Hospitality & foodservice distributors — Consistent cut specification, agreed drop sizes and repeat scheduling.
- GCC premium retail & hotel importers — Halal-certified lamb and premium cheese for retail and hotel supply.
- Live-lamb livestock importers — Middle East — welfare-compliant transport, subject to current health status.
