OLMC
was founded in 1996 by a handful of dedicated organic livestock
producers determined to secure a future for their product
in a competitive national market.
OLMC
was formed as a member controlled co-operative with two
main aims:
To
ensure growth of the organic market.
To
ensure organic producers get the best possible return
for their livestock.
Our
business has grown steadily over recent years. Membership also continues
to grow as more and more farmers recognise the benefits
of marketing their organic livestock through the OLMC. We
are a national organisation and currently we have over 350
livestock producer members.
OLMC
supplies a wide range of outlets with organic meat. Through
our immediate customers we supply many of the UK’s
major retail outlets of organic meat including some of the
supermarket chains. In addition, we also supply smaller
butcher’s businesses as an integral part of our policy
to grow the UK market for organic meat.
OLMC today is the main body sourcing and marketing organic livestock
in the UK.
OLMC
is a major Pledgor in the Organic UK campaign and has a seat on the Marketing Sub-Committee. The main purpose of this Committee is to discuss, agree and deliver a generic marketing campaign within the UK for organics up to the end of 2013.
OLMC considers that this hands on involvement to be potentially of great value to its members in securing a more robust future among consumers and within the organic market place as a whole. For further detail of the campaign access www.organicuk.org.
OLMC is also a member of the Organic Trade Board.
