FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Introducing Double R Ranch brand Beef -- a new source-certified, grain-fed, Northwest Beef challenging traditional Midwest, corn-fed Beef(Boise, ID) - In keeping with consumer trends towards healthy, flavorful, and locally raised beef, Agri Beef Co. and its subsidiary Washington Beef, LLC announce the launch of Double R Ranch, a new brand of premium grain-fed beef from the heart of the Northwest. Double R Ranch Premium Northwest Beef is the only family-owned brand from the Northwest that controls all aspects of production so customers will be assured of experiencing the very finest selection of premium beef.Double R Ranch is named after Robert Rebholtz, Sr. and his family who have owned Agri Beef Co. for over 35 years. The brand was developed with extensive consumer input into what they want from a great beef brand. No surprise was the fact that taste and tenderness were considered to be the most important attributes. In addition, consumers had a tremendous positive association with the Northwest. The perception of a safe, clean and pristine environment bolstered the prospects for the new brand. The research also revealed that consumers want to support local ranchers and that source verification is an important issue. "Consumers are mostly familiar with one marketing message - Midwest Corn-fed beef; when if fact Northwest grain-fed beef is as good or better," said Jay Theiler, VP Brand Development at Agri Beef Co. "Through our research, it became evident that customers wanted a locally produced product that tasted great and could be sourced from one company," he continued. Double R Ranch Premium Northwest grain-fed beef meets all the standards for great taste and tenderness that consumers want. In fact, there is no difference in taste between Midwest corn-fed beef - (the "Gold Standard" of beef) and Northwest beef in blind taste tests. Northwest beef has a slightly whiter marbling color because of the dietary differences versus cattle in the Mid-West, a consumer preferred trait. Source verification is a positive food safety benefit that is a factor in consumer's decision making. As a family-owned operation that has operations in every aspect of beef production, Agri Beef Co. has the ability to carefully manage the quality and consistency of their branded beef through the entire production cycle. The Double R Ranch brand will also have a higher grade called Double R Ranch Signature that is northwest top choice beef reserved for restaurants and discriminating retailers. In addition, the company is launching a line of convenient, heat-and-serve marinated beef products called Double R Ranch Quick Chef. Agri beef Co. is a family-owned vertically integrated beef company with operations in every step of the supply chain including ranching, cattle feeding, nutrition and beef processing. Washington Beef LLC, is the processing facility located in Toppenish, WA. Washington Beef runs a one-shift operation with a full shift dedicated to cleaning for the highest quality standards and workmanship in the industry. The Double R Ranch brand is hand-sorted by weight range for consistency. For more information, please visit www.doublerranchbeef.com # # #
