  1. NEW DELIVERY AGREEMENT TO INCLUDE PREMIUM IN 2013 (E-newsletter 12 October 2012) – Repeating
  2. DUEL PRICE SYSTEM
  3. WEEKLY PRICES - WEEK 46-2012


  1. NEW DELIVERY AGREEMENT TO INCLUDE PREMIUM IN 2013 (E-newsletter 12 October 2012)
Meatco will implement an updated Delivery Agreement carrying a Delivery Agreement Premium of N$1.50 /kg from 1 January 2013. The new Delivery Agreement aims is to reward producers who are committed and loyal to Meatco and to incentivize planned delivery to Meatco’s abattoirs, which in turn will help the Corporation to plan its operations.

The major changes in the new Delivery Agreement are the introduction of the Delivery Agreement Premium and a change in the length of slaughter periods.

The Delivery Agreement Premium will be fixed annually and is payable to producers who slaughter a minimum of 90% and a maximum of 110% plus 36 of the cattle committed to in the agreement. The premium will be payable above the announced Meatco Producer Price and is fixed at N$1.50 for 2013. Although the Meatco Producer Price is payable on the day of slaughter, the Delivery Agreement Premium will be paid out in the month following the applicable slaughter period.

The lengths of the slaughter periods have also changed. The first slaughter period will run for three months only, from January to March. The second slaughter period will run for five months from April to August. This will allow producers to better assess their marketing position relative to the conditions of brought about by the rainy season. The final period will run for four months from September to December.

Additionally, the merit point will no longer be calculated for every slaughter period, but once annually for the entire year.

The first signing period for new Delivery Agreement starts on 1 November 2012. This is for the slaughter period from January to April. Producers are therefore urged to contact their nearest Procurement Office to sign their Delivery Agreements for the first period of 2013.

Delivery Agreement 2013 are now available at our offices.  For the 1st Period 2013 (January to March)  we can sign till end of November 2012, only 2 weeks left.
