The Group is totally committed to its core business of livestock marketing and meat processing. However, ANM is a highly diversified business with interests in the land market, non-agricultural auctions, events and the catering/hospitality industry, in addition to its core agricultural business.

People are the key to the Group’s success. The 7500 farmer-shareholders who own the business have a direct involvement in the direction of the Group through the medium of the board of directors and this is a major factor in the stability of the business.

The efficiency, dedication and professionalism of the innovative management
and skilled staff ensure that ANM Group continues to develop and grow its business in line with the aspirations of its members. Continued investment in development and training is designed to provide staff with the skills needed to ensure the continuation of the high-quality service which members and customers have come to expect.

The development of modern auction marts, the pioneering of electronic and video auctions, the extension of the meat business into the ready meals market, diversification into non-agricultural auctions and the move into the high-quality catering and hospitality market are examples of the innovative approach which has made ANM Group one of the most successful farmer-owned businesses in the UK, with annual sales of £150 million, an asset base of around £30 million and shareholder funds in excess of £17 million.

Inspired by the innovative spirit of the pioneering farmers who established the original business in 1870, ANM Group is a highly-profitable, broadly-based business which is widely acknowledged as one of the most dynamic, progressive and forward-looking businesses serving the UK farming industry.
