Teys Australia, Meat processing company in Eight Mile Plains, Australia
Teys Australia is a meat processing company based in Eight Mile Plains, Queensland, that supplies beef to markets around the world. It runs several processing facilities across three Australian states, along with a facility in Hemmant that produces delicatessen items and prepared meals.
The company was founded in 1946 when four Teys brothers began buying butcher shops around Brisbane. Six years later, they opened their first processing facility in Beenleigh, which marked the start of a wider expansion.
Teys Australia played a key role in opening the Japanese market to chilled Australian beef, a trade that continues to this day. This long-standing connection helped shape how Australian beef is perceived and sold across Asia.
The company headquarters sits in Eight Mile Plains, east of Brisbane, in an office complex that is not open to the public. The processing facilities are located across different states and are not accessible to visitors.
Alongside its processing operations, the company also runs its own feedlots where cattle are raised and fed before slaughter. This means Teys Australia controls several stages of beef production within its own network.
