Meat import from many regions of the earth

As an international meat importer and wholesaler, Jacobsen imports selected meat products from the best regions in the world.

For many years, Jacobsen has traded with meat from almost all regions in the world to allow customers to benefit from an attractive range of premium meat. At our location in Hamburg, the gateway to the world, is a globally unique centre of the meat industry. From here, we cultivate our international and trusted business relationships with one aim: to offer our customers a quality that goes beyond the average.

Classic countries of origin for prime steer meat in South America such as Argentina, Brazil, Paraguay and Uruguay continue to offer maximum beef enjoyment thanks to their natural environment and favourable climatic conditions. The immense Pampas, the pasture extending as far as Uruguay and Brazil, offers ideal breeding conditions and is the home of the gauchos and their vast cattle herds. We import the highest quality, tender lamb from New Zealand. But also from Europe, which continues to offer meat enjoyment of the highest level with the best veal, delicious pork and excellent game from Germany and other EU countries. Australia is the world’s third largest exporter of beef and veal. This makes the country, known affectionately as “Down Under”, highly interesting for us as an international meat importer.
