Red Tractor are the champions of British food, farming and consumer safety and the UK’s biggest farm and food assurance scheme that underpins the high standards of British food & drink. They are the flagship logo of British food and farming, providing assurance at every stage of the production process, from farm to pack. Over 42,000 British farmers are accredited to Red Tractor standards.

The Red Tractor logo represents over 25 years of driving world leading British food standards. Since 2000, Red Tractor have worked closely with animal welfare experts, vets, agronomists and the entire supply chain to ensure that whenever you buy a product with the Red Tractor logo, it is traceable, safe, and responsibly produced. Their assurance covers the entire food supply chain and they work with over 350 independent assessors to ensure the most robust assessments possible.  These assessors are all highly trained and experienced – together, they conduct over 60,000 assessments a year.

Traceable

The Red Tractor logo means your food has been produced entirely in the UK, with every step of the food journey checked and documented from farms to pack. All food and drink can be traced right back through the supply chain to the British farms it came from.

Safe

Red Tractor insist on rigorous production standards from farm to pack. Use of any Plant Protection Products such as pesticides is strictly regulated and plans must be in place to minimise their use without compromising product quality. They also ensure responsible use of animal medicines including antibiotics.

Responsibly produced

Red Tractor have partnered with animal welfare experts and vets since 2000 to continuously strengthen their requirements on animal welfare. Together they work to ensure that all livestock are healthy with the right living space, food, and water.
