TFC in elite meat deal

 - Published:  14 April, 2006

TFC Express has struck a deal with a Chilean producer Chile Wagyu to increase imports of the highly sought-after Wagyu meat.

The Wagyu cattle originate from Japan and produce the heavily ­marbled Kobe beef, known for its extreme tenderness, apparently due to its grain feeding regime.

Wholesale prices for top-end cuts are based on the marbling grade of the eye muscle, fat colour, and flesh colour of the ribeye.

Prices from the Santiago-based producer start at £60kg. ­Cheaper cuts such as roasting joints are avail­able from £15kg. Wagyu steak prices start at £18kg and trimmings sell for £9kg.

TFC ships all its products chilled, delivered on dry ice, and it comes with fully traceable records.
