What Does Selling Beef Direct to Consumer Really Mean?

Here at Belcrest Farms, our goal when we started selling our beef direct to consumers was to provide our customers with the assurance of where their food was coming from. By showing our customers exactly how our animals are raised gives them a good inclination of the quality of beef that ends up on their table. For us, there’s no better way to help feed America, than providing it right from the source. We know you might have a couple of questions, so let’s start out by explaining what direct-to-consumer beef really means and why we use this model. 

What is Direct to Consumer Beef?

Direct-to-consumer (DTC) beef is a new way to purchase beef that is becoming increasingly popular and available in the United States. Instead of buying beef from a grocery store or local butcher, consumers can now purchase beef directly from the source, which can offer a fresh and customizable product. Just like Belcrest Farms, direct-to-consumer beef sellers go through an extensive process to provide the highest quality beef to their customers.

How Does Direct-to-Consumer Beef Work?

When you order beef from Belcrest Farms or any other direct-to-consumer seller, you can be rest assured that the beef you are getting had the highest quality of life leading to a high-quality end product. One of the reasons that people opt to order from DTC sellers is that they know exactly how those animals were raised and the process gives a lot more transparency as to where their food comes from. Once you place an order with us, we package and ship the beef directly to your door! The beef is packaged in insulated containers with dry ice to ensure that it stays frozen. You can also customize your beef order according to your personal preference with options like choosing individual cuts of beef or curated beef bundles.

Benefits of Direct-to-Consumer Beef

The main benefit of buying beef directly from the source is that you can guarantee that you are getting the freshest, highest-quality beef available. You also have more control over the size of your order and the grade of beef you are getting. Plus, when you buy beef from a DTC provider, you are supporting local farmers and ranchers, who are keeping the economy going and providing jobs to their local communities.

In conclusion, direct-to-consumer beef is becoming an increasingly popular way to purchase high-quality beef in a fast, convenient way. Here at Belcrest Farms, we aim to provide our customers with all of the information they need to know before they buy from us but if you do have questions on how this process works, please don’t hesitate to reach out!
