Certified Hereford Beef’s® Success is Due to the
Integrity and Passion of Our People and Partners
Certified Hereford Beef® is a national premium beef program; a not-for-profit organization; and a celebration of family farmers and ranchers across the United States. Since its founding in 1995 by a passionate group of Hereford producers, this brand has remained unique as the only Hereford beef label owned by an alliance of local farm and ranch families.
At the heart of Certified Hereford Beef is a deep-rooted commitment to raising the finest quality Hereford cattle. This dedication shines through in every cut of beef, resulting in a consistently superior product that has won the hearts of chefs, retailers, and consumers. Rave reviews speak volumes about the love and care that goes into every step of the process.
Leading this organization is Ernie Davis, our Chief Executive Officer, whose vision and passion for quality drive the team forward. Alongside him is Craig Bacon, the Chairman of the Board of Directors, a Hereford rancher whose leadership and support, along with the support of all our Board members, help make Certified Hereford Beef a trusted name in the industry.
The entire CHB team is dedicated to not just providing exceptional beef, but to supporting and valuing our customers and partners, and to honoring the traditions and hard work of the farmers and ranchers who make it all possible.
