OUR ANIMALS EAT NOTHING BUT THE FINEST
SAFETY
Stradivarius animals are USDA-certified free of hormones and antibiotics.
Traceability
Each Stradivarius animal carries an ear tag along all its life and can be tracked through the chain.
Tenderness
To assure tenderness, Stradivarius cattle goes to market at 24-36 months.
Animal Welfare
Stradivarius animals are never confined. They roam free in pastures.
Natural Diet
Consistency
Stradivarius-branded animals are carefully selected by hand.
Our great holdings allow us to be consistent in the markets we supply, ensuring quality, and a variety of cuts and stock. For 20 years, the owners of the company have been directly responsible for the selection of each of the animals to be exported. We are involved in every detail of the business, from production to final consumption in any specialized Meat Market or Gourmet Restaurant in the United States; and that makes a difference.
There are strict regulations in Uruguay which protect production. Our animals live outdoors all year on endless natural pastures which stretch past the horizon, and we know the history of each one of them thanks to the mandatory traceability program which forces us to improve every day to achieve excellence in each of our products.
The success of our cuts in all the US taste tests is confirmation that we are on the right track. Our beef stands out for its unique flavor, which comes only from animals fed exclusively on natural grass. We achieve the highest possible tenderness in grass-fed beef, because we only export cuts from heiffers (24-36 months), which are 20% more tender.
Gourmet chefs who specialize in beef prefer small and tasty cuts and STRADIVARIUS can guarantee that quantity and variety of cuts with exceptional quality.
URUGUAYAN LIVESTOCK
In 1611, the King of Spain authorized Hernandarias to introduce the first cattle to the Río de la Plata. Neither of them imagined that, from then on, this would become Uruguay’s most prosperous and thriving industry.
Located between the warmth of the tropics and the snows of the south, with four mild seasons, unique water resources, and high-quality pastures covering its entire territory, Uruguay is a paradise for raising English breeds like Angus and Hereford.
Uruguay has a century-old culture in meat production, its main export product, and Uruguayans are the world’s top consumers of meat per capita. The tradition of Gauchos and Estancias in cattle raising is passed down from generation to generation, and livestock farming is the economic, social, and cultural engine of Uruguay.
3 million Uruguayans and 12 million cattle. Uruguay has the highest relative cattle population in the world, and this scale ensures the ability to supply any market with a high level of consistency. Ninety percent of its cattle are raised on natural pasture, using advanced genetics for grass-fed animals.
