DOUBLE B BEEF GROUP

The Double B Group was formed in 1984 and has focused on a number of initiatives to promote the beef industry in the Bingara/Barraba region of northern NSW. Objective Livestock Marketing has a long association with the Double B Group, becoming the group’s marketer in 1995. The relationship between OLM and Double B has continued to strengthen and grow over the past decade as group members embrace the concept of being part of an integrated and managed beef supply chain.

There are currently 42 beef producers involved in the Double B Group and more than half of these businesses chose to sell cattle through Objective Livestock Marketing. These producers enjoy a wide range of benefits including:

The negotiating power of numbers as part of a large producer membership
Access to a wide range of markets - feedlot, grower & processor
Immediate access to direct consignment grid prices
Objective assessment of cattle to maximise value, and meet specifications
Planned turnoff and delivery program

Access to the AUCTIONS PLUS auction system
Amalgamation of smaller lots to capitalise on best markets
Attractive, negotiated freight arrangements
