THE PROCESS
Animal Suppliers
We source our animals from farms and producers who practice stringent health programs that insure the wellbeing of their animals through the use of vaccines and health management practices. By cooperating with these farms, Kennedy Creek Livestock Exports has access to their inventories allowing us to purchase in volume for our clients.
Selection
Through our contacts in the agricultural community, we can locate your specific requirements at the very best value. Whether you need top quality breeding stock to improve your future herd or commercial females to improve production, we will locate the animals you require. We can arrange inspection visits and we will accompany you, minimizing your effort and saving your valuable time.
Health Testing
Experienced veterinarians test the selected animals to meet the protocol requirements of the importing country including all the required health exams before transportation overseas. Our veterinarians have many years of experience insuring the health of animals being shipped. Every animal we ship is prepared for its voyage by being vaccinating against important diseases and establishing parasite control.
No matter how difficult the health protocol, we can do it! The most important aspect of our job is ensuring that the livestock you buy from us arrive healthy, ready to work for you!
Purchase
Price is one of the most important factors to any buyer. The end price of animal genetics is affected by many factors. The most significant factor is that price is relative to the quality of the product you receive. However, when related to live animals, price is also relative to both the services provided throughout transport as well as the health of delivered animals.
We are active in the current market as we have our own working farm that sells animals on a regular basis. Our first-hand knowledge of economic trends in the livestock market, our strong relationships with breeders, and our reputation for honesty and reliability enable us to negotiate effectively for our clients.
Administration and Documentation
Preparing the livestock for delivery to an overseas destination is a critical stage in the exportation process. We coordinate with producers, veterinarians and state health officials to insure the safe movement of animals into our quarantine centre. Experience has shown that good planning and coordination is essential to the success of this portion of the export process. At this point in the exportation process, precise and efficient documentation is essential. Kennedy Creek Livestock staff have over 20 years of experience in logistics and international business We make sure our paperwork is done correctly and on time.
Quarantine
Kennedy Creek Livestock Exports have our own pre-export isolation facility ”Kennedy Creek Livestock Centre” on our property so we can process any international livestock order totally in house.
The 40 acre isolation centre is located within a 100 acre block across the road from the main property. The centre is fully secure and buffered and the entire 100 acres is sown to Lucerne. The water supply to all paddocks is spring fed.
Transportation by Air Freight
Kennedy Creek Livestock Exports takes pride in its reputation for safe delivery of live animals to buyers around the world. Air Freight livestock shipments made by Kennedy Creek are coordinated through various freight forwarders for shipments from airports in capital cities of Australia. The shipping pens are built to Australian and airline specifications to insure the animals arrive in the best possible condition. If required, our staff are available to travel with and care for the animals during transit as the health care of the animals is paramount.
Destination Care
Some clients prefer to have their animals managed once they arrive in their country. We can provide both the veterinary and management services to help supervise the animal quarantine in the destination country. Our goal at Kennedy Creek is to make your livestock investment as profitable and successful as possible. Our representatives can help you establish your animal operation from start to finish, feeding to breeding, purchasing to marketing.
