WHY CHOOSE GRUPPO VERCELLIWe bring the tradition of high-quality Italian vealto consumers all over the world.

The Vercelli Group is Italy’s leading food producer and a European leader in the modern beef industry.

The Group’s corporate governance and development strategy find their core and drive in the Vercelli

family’s long-standing commitment and experience. Today, brothers Alessandro and Gian Luca bring

fresh life and innovation to the Vercelli family’s tradition and passion: high quality Italian veal guaranteed

The Group operates a supply-chain system where farms are integrated with slaughtering plants:

this brings together under one operation the technical resources and the professional skills necessary to meet

the demands of a market that is highly competitive, especially when it comes to food quality and safety, pricing,

and flexibility of supply.

guarantee the high quality of all its products.

Every day we renew our commitment to bring to all

our clients and to each individual consumer our safe,

ORGANOLEPTIC PROPERTIES

It is easy to feel the high quality of Gruppo Vercelli’s veal.

Colour. Gruppo Vercelli’s white-meat veal characteristic colour is due to the young

age of the calves, and by their special diet of dry feeds and milk.

Scent. The Group’s fresh and healthy meats have a mild scent, with delicate tones

of grass and cereals.

Taste. Italian veal meats have a delicate taste and the right amount of juices.

Texture. Gruppo Vercelli’s Italian veal has a very fine, velvety texture to the touch

and to the palate.

Only the high standards of Gruppo Vercelli’s integrated supply chain can guarantee

excellent quality throughout the entire process, from the selection of each individual

animal for farming, to the specific diet plan and the animal welfare through each

phase of the chain (farming, transport, slaughtering).
