Uluova Süt Ticaret A.Ş.

Scroll down to see the text in English

Çanakkale’de bulunan bir süt üreticisi olan Uluova Süt, çiftliklerinde yetiştirilen sığırların küresel hayvan refahı standartlarına uygun şekilde bakıldığını müşterilerine göstermek istemiştir.

Marka sorumlusu Melih Ertürk, bu kanıtı oluşturmanın ve küresel pazarda tanınırlık kazanmanın en etkili yolunu araştırırken, Certified Humane® programını keşfetmiştir.

Sonuç olarak, Uluova Süt, Türkiye’de Certified Humane® hayvan refahı etiketi ile sertifikalandırılan ilk şirket olmuştur. Ertürk’e göre bu başarı, Uluova’nın süt üretiminde zaten uyguladığı etik iç prosedürleri vurgulamaktadır: “Zaten hayvan refahına odaklanan bir yönetimi benimsemiş olmamızdan dolayı , prestijli ve uluslararası alanda tanınan bir sertifikasyon programı arıyorduk.”

Uluova Süt’te 115 çalışan üç vardiya halinde çalışmakta olup, süt üretimi iki çiftlikte de gerçekleşmekte olup günlük üretim 50 tona ulaşmaktadır. Başlangıçta hayvan refahı sertifikası, günlük 15 ton süt üreten bir çiftlik için geçerlidir – ancak beklenti, önümüzdeki yıllarda tüm operasyonların sertifikalandırılması yönündedir.

Farkındalık ve Dahili Laboratuvar

Ertürk, hayvan refahı konusundaki endişenin her zaman markanın faaliyetlerini yönlendirdiğini açıklıyor: “Ana önceliğimiz, çalışanlarımızın farkındalığını artırmaktır. Ahırda hayvan refahı için fiziksel koşulları sağlamak kadar, hayvanların sağlığını izlemek de kritik önemdedir. Bu nedenle, hayvanların sağlık durumunu izlemek için her türlü analizlerin yapıldığı bir laboratuvar geliştirdik,” diye açıklıyor Ertürk.

Şirkete göre, hayvan refahı standartlarına uyum sağlamak ve Certified Humane® etiketini kazanmak için süt üretiminde sadece birkaç – ama önemli – değişiklik yapılması gerekmiştir: “Hayvanlara yaklaşımımız zaten Humane Farm Animal Care (HFAC) tarafından belirlenen standartların çoğuna uyuyordu, ancak öğrendiğimiz ve uyguladığımız bazı ayarlamalar hayvan refahını sağlama konusunda büyük bir fark yarattı.”

Pazarda Tanınırlık

2015 yılında kurulan Uluova Süt, Amerika Birleşik Devletleri’nden ithal edilen Holstein inekleriyle faaliyetlerine başlamıştır. Şirket, sütü daha doğal bir şekilde üretmenin gerekli olduğunu fark ettiğinde, hızla piyasada tanınırlık ve talep kazanmıştır.

Bugün Uluova, dört farklı ırktan toplam dört bin sığır yetiştirmektedir ve 2021 yılında tamamen otomatik bir çiftlik inşa etmiştir. Hızla büyüyen şirket, Melih Ertürk’ün “başarılı ve hızlı” olarak tanımladığı, Certified Humane® Enstitüsü tarafından yürütülen Certified Humane® hayvan refahı sertifikasyonunu alarak önemli bir adım atmıştır.

Uluova Süt, yüksek kaliteli pastörize süt ve yoğurt üretmektedir ve ürünleri şu anda İstanbul ve Çanakkale’deki şarküterilerde satılmaktadır. Şirket yöneticisi Melih Ertürk’e göre, şirket zamanla pazar erişimini genişletmeyi planlamaktadır. Şirket hakkında daha fazla bilgi almak için resmi web sitesini ziyaret edebilirsiniz.

Uluova Dairy, a milk producer based in Canakkale, Turkey, has always wanted to show its customers that the cattle raised on its farms are cared for according to global animal welfare standards.

It was while researching the most effective way to establish this proof and gain recognition in the global market that Melih Ertürk, the person in charge of the brand, discovered the Certified Humane® program.

As a result, Uluova Dairy became the first company in Turkey to be certified with the Certified Humane® animal welfare seal.

According to Ertürk, this achievement came to emphasize the ethical internal procedures that Uluova was already applying in milk production: “Although we were already adopting animal welfare-focused management, we were looking for a prestigious internationally recognized certification program.”

Uluova Dairy has 115 employees working in three shifts, and its milk production is divided between two farms, reaching 50 tons per day. Initially, the animal welfare certification is valid for one of the farms, which produces 15 tons of milk daily – however, the expectation is that the entire operation will be certified in the coming years.

Awareness and In-House Laboratory

Ertürk explains how the concern for animal welfare has always guided the brand’s activities: “Our main priority is raising employee awareness.

Monitoring the animals’ health is just as critical as providing physical conditions in the barn for animal welfare, which is why we developed a laboratory where all types of analyses are conducted to monitor the health of the animals,” explains Ertürk.

According to the owner, the company had to implement only a few – but important – changes to adapt milk production to the animal welfare standards and achieve the Certified Humane® seal: “Our approach to animals was already meeting most of the standards set by Humane Farm Animal Care (HFAC), but we learned and made adjustments that make all the difference in ensuring animal welfare.”

Market Recognition

Founded in 2015, Uluova Dairy began its operations with a herd of Holstein cows imported from the United States. When the company realized it was necessary to produce milk more naturally, it quickly gained recognition and demand in the market.

Today, Uluova raises a total of four thousand cattle of four different breeds and, in 2021, built a new fully automated farm. Growing rapidly, the achievement of the Certified Humane® animal welfare certification – described by Ertürk as a “successful and swift” process carried out by the Certified Humane® Institute – was an important step in the company’s evolution.

Uluova Dairy produces high-quality pasteurized milk and yogurt, and its products are currently sold in delicatessens in Istanbul and Canakkale. According to owner Melih Ertürk, the company is planning to expand its reach over time. To learn more about the company, visit the official website.
