Thank you for contacting us. An investigation by the Animal Justice Project has alleged welfare concerns and published distressing images of goats in a farm contracted by Delamere Dairy, a supplier of Suma.
Since the Animal Justice Project approached us with these allegations we have investigated.
Initially we raised our concerns with Delamere. We received a detailed explanation from the farm in question, responding to all the concerns raised by the Animal Justice Project.
We have relied on the expertise of independent assurance standards to assess Delamere’s farms, rather than relying on Delamere’s own assurances or the footage supplied by the campaign group. In particular, we have reviewed:
• The Red Tractor Goat Farm Assurance certification for the Delamere farm in question
• Independent, unannounced veterinary inspections for the farm and a letter of assurance from the farm’s local vet that animals on the farm are well looked after.
• We have also been in contact with the accreditation body
We have also reviewed information on the farms that supply the Delamere products stocked by Suma. They all demonstrate through recent Red Tractor audits that they are complying with Red Tractor Dairy Goats Scheme Assurance Standards.
As such, for the time being we will continue to stock Delamere products, but we will be monitoring the situation closely.
Prior to this investigation, we had begun the process of reviewing the standards of animal welfare required for the products we stock. The issues and concerns highlighted by the Animal Justice Project will feed into that review.
