In our case, ELPOZO ALIMENTACIÓN offers a double quality guarantee:3CERTIFICATION PATA NEGRA BELLOTA RECEBO

To start with there are 2 basic aspects that we must now: 1. It is a sector where we can find a large number of companies, many of them being small local manufacturers that compete with just a few large sized ones with national distribution, therefore forming a wide offer of brands and strong competition.

2. On the other hand we know that in the market there is a generalized lack of knowledge of the product, which is even greater when it comes to the consumer. The lack of information can lead to a general mistrust or insecurity: do we know what we are buying? Do we really value the product?

1Once this is cleared, it is important to know that the world of ibérico is regulated by: The Ibérico Quality Norms (RD 1469/2007 dated 2nd November 2007) which defines the quality aspects and requirements and establishes the denominations of authorized sales so that the products can be sold as Ibérico.

The norm affects those products that are sold as fresh meat and ham, shoulder and loin products* in their various formats (sliced and retail packed).

What is more, it implies that the manufacturers of Ibérico must be certified by one of the external companies that exist for this.

There are many variables and little information

The whole truth about ibérico pork

About ibérico pork

Red: which can be • Rubia • Retinta • Manchada • Torbiscal

Lets go into more depth with each of these points

Regarding Breed, the animal may be:

Pure Ibérico: When both the parent pigs are 100% Ibérico breed. Ibérico: in the rest of the cases whenever the mother sow is 100% pure Ibérico or Ibérico breed.

What is more, regarding the hairs and skin color, we can distinguish between the varieties as follows:

Black: which can be • Lampiña • Entrepelado

5After this introduction, we are going to see what factors contribute to defining the quality and denomination of Ibérico products

The quality depends on 3 variables:

1. The genetics and breed of the animal.

2. The feed that is used in the final fattening process of the ibérico pig.

3. And the processing of the meat and or products.

The denomination of the products will derive from just the first 2 factors: Breed and Feed.

4

1. Through our Integrated Process Control, which allows us to define and control all the activities of our chain of value with the aim of offering the market products in optimum conditions.

2. Externally, through the certifying company Certicalidad SL, which certifies our processes and products in line with the Quality Norm, confirming that the products we distribute offer all the minimum guarantees covered by law.

CEBO BREED FEED PRODUCTS DENOMINATIONOF ORIGIN

In our case(At ELPOZO ALIMENTACIÓN), what type are our Ibérico pigs? What are they called?

• BREED: Ibérico • VARIETY: Black – hairless • FEEDING: Cebo • BREEDING: in an extensive livestock system (in the outdoors, so the animal has mobility and it facilitates the infiltration of the fat in the muscles.

• GROWING AREA: Andalusia • SLAUGHTERING: Murcia • CURING: Murcia – Guijuelo (currently)

IBÉRICO PIG FEEDING

PURE IBÉRICO IBÉRICO

ANIMAL BREED

Regarding the FEEDING of the Ibérico Pork, there are four different types(*):

Bellota: it is exclusively fed on acorns and natural pastures of the meadows, in the outdoors.Recebo: It is also fed on acorns and natural pastures of the meadows, as well as with natural feeds.Cebo (field): It is exclusively fed on natural feeds, held for a minimum period in the field.Cebo: it is fed exclusively on natural feeds (cereals and legumes) until reaching the sacrifice weight.

(*) We refer exclusively on the feeding of the last 3 – 4 months of the animal´s life, previous to its sacrifice, which is what defines the 4 typologies of Ibérico Pork. Until that moment all the Ibérico Pigs are fed on natural feeds.

6 Therefore the designation of the product in the labeling will mention the following features:7

9What makes different?Following the best transport possible for the animal, avoiding stress and bumps, we proceed to its sacrifice with great care and the best animal welfare processes.

Our weekly slaughtering is around 2.000 – 2.500 iberian pigs. (*) Ministry of Environment, Rural and Marine.

But above all else, what is it that differences us from the competition and helps us give more quality?: our correctly selection genetics, breed and feed (RnD+i).

Oleic Acid Profile of Ibérico pork

In these reference parameters we see how our level of quality is well above the average of our CEBO category, quoting the acceptability of our product even higher than the relative values of RECEBO. This is possible thanks to the continuous work in investigation reflected in the improvement of genetics, the breeding system and the feed.

Consumer test Global Acceptability:

• We offer an optimum level of Oleic Acid (Product of higher quality).

• We are an “CEBO Ibérico” of maximum sensorial quality (flavor, texture, aroma…).

• This allows us to offer the best quality – price ratio in the market. *Test of sensorial quality: University of Extremadura.
