This follows last month's wins at the Royal Queensland Food and Wine Show for Master Kobe where it was named "Australia's Best Steak" and "Champion of Show".
AACo chief executive and managing director David Farley said these awards reinforced the company's approach to its products, in focusing on quality through the entire supply chain.
“We are continuing to see increasing demand for our Wagyu products both domestically and internationally and our innovations across our entire production process ensures our Master Kobe continues to be prized all around the world,” said Mr Farley.
“AAco remains at the forefront of Wagyu production in Australia and winning awards such as this are a testament to our people and their efforts in continuously seeking and striving for excellence in all of our products.”
AAco is renowned for having Australia's largest herd of Wagyu, comprising the most highly credentialed full-blood Japanese Black Wagyu ever to leave Japan. AAco has more than 30,000 head of Wagyu in the Darling Downs in southern Queensland.
Mr Farley once again acknowledged the contribution of Pat Dempsey, AAco's General Manager Beef Group and Greg Gibbons, General Manager Farming and Feedlots in achieving a consistently high standard across all AAco's products which has resulted in this award.
