PPCS is a large New Zealand meat-marketing company, exporting sheep meat, beef, and venison and associated products to about 60 countries.
With the recent amalgamation of Richmond, the combined group turns over $2 billion and accounts for 37% of New Zealand's sheep meat exports, 35% of beef exports and 54% of venison exports.

As a truly global company, it is no surprise to find PPCS produces hundreds of different finished products. Each customer has their own specific requirements and it is PPCS' goal to satisfy these demands. Specifications may include producing goods packaged and labeled especially for a particular market, or further-processing a cut of meat to the exact requirements of the customer. There are also market requirements associated with cultural sensitivities, which can result in a customer needing the attentive service PPCS offers.

All production is undertaken using the latest processing techniques and technology under strict hygiene conditions. Quality control checks are maintained at all stages of production, storage and distribution to ensure that product reaches the market in the pristine condition customers have come to expect.

Mention New Zealand anywhere around the world and one of the first things people think of is our lamb. New Zealand lamb has built an international reputation for its flavor and tenderness. Lamb and mutton products are the largest part of the PPCS business. The company represents about 37% of New Zealand's total production. With its distinctive flavor, lamb has been a staple part of the diet of many cultures for centuries and it is now gaining recognition as an alternative red meat in many non-traditional markets. New Zealand lamb is naturally raised on open green pastures, from breeds recognized for their eating qualities. All PPCS lamb products have undergone electrical stimulation and minimum chilled holding periods prior to processing or freezing — this ensures maximum tenderness. PPCS produces a full range of bone-in and boneless chilled and frozen lamb cuts, packaged to customer requirements. Most of the product is packed under the quality PPCS, Richmond or Silver Fern™ brands
