Company Description
The Irish Suffolk Sheep Society Company Limited by Guarantee is the long-standing guardian of the Suffolk breed across the British Isles. Founded in 1886, the Society's core mission is to protect the integrity of the breed, support its members and champion the Suffolk as the premier domestic terminal sire for commercial lamb production.
Members benefit from a comprehensive suite of services, including ram registration, access to the Grassroots pedigree-management software, and regular sales and show events that showcase top-quality animals. The Society also provides commercial farmers with performance data and testimonials, runs a youth-focused NextGen programme for aspiring breeders, and offers a range of branded merchandise and publications.
Based in Ballymena, County Antrim, the Society serves both commercial flocks and pedigree breeders throughout Ireland and the United Kingdom, ensuring the Suffolk's continued contribution to the national food chain and the vitality of the breed for future generations.
