Carlow Foods Ltd., A Passion for Free Range
Founded in 2003 by Bertram Salter, Carlow Foods Ltd., is a wholly owned Free Range Artisan Poultry Producer located in Kilkea, near Fenagh, Co. Carlow. Coming from a local farming background Bertram gained a wealth of experience in the area of Poultry Production, an experience he wanted to channel into his own business. In 2003 his entrepreneurial personality took hold and with the backing of a sound business plan, he founded Carlow Foods Ltd. Unusually in this sector, the company owns and manages the entire supply chain process from rearing and processing the birds through to slaughter, packaging and delivery. Bertram was later joined in the business by his wife Celine and together they have nurtured the fledgling farm enterprise to develop a full scale profitable business. In doing so they can consistently live up to their mission statement which is, "to provide the consumer with a genuine free range Irish Chicken at an affordable price".
