As early as the 18th century, polish geese were being exported from Poland. But instead of being delivered deep-frozen or fresh by truck within a few hours, these flightless birds had to walk around 1,000 km to Germany in flocks numbering sixty thousand.
When German importers funded the cross-border marketing of the Polish goose in the 60s, its commercial success became assured.
At Polfood GmbH, we discovered the Polish goose and have, with a clear conscience, been offering high quality goose and goose parts in our range for years.
4,000 tons of goose meat is produced each year in Germany. This covers only 15 per cent of demand. The rest is mostly from Poland or Hungary.
Polish farms produce approximately 20,000 tons of goose meat per year – more than any other country in the European Union;
95% of this meat is exported.
More than 80 % of all Germans annually choose the Polish goose for Christmas.
Polish geese originate from green Poland, e. g. from Podlachian or Bialystok.
Our geese are not force-fed, which is legally prohibited in Poland, and not live-plucked.
The producers have all necessary certificates, and most notably the IFS certificate.
Their controlled feed consists of: grass, herbs, cut nettle, and young grains.
In the final three weeks, oat is added to the feed in order to achieve a special taste.
Our geese are raised for at least 100 days.
Furthermore, goose meat is rich in vitamins A, B1, B2, B6 and the important B-Vitamin Niacin.
So say yes to the Polish goose more often – not only at Christmas time or on St. Martin’s day!
