Woodview Wagyu Beef - the Caviar of Beef

The Angus family imported the first Wagyu genetics into South Africa. Our cattle are not fed animal by-products, growth stimulants or antibiotics, but are fed natural sun ripened corn produced on our farm. All Woodview beef is certified and can be traced back to our farm.
