Karoo lamb GI

Karoo Lamb is the first South African product to be registered as a geographical indication under South Africa’s Agricultural Products Standards Act. Karoo Lamb has been granted GI status due to its distinctive qualities and unique taste that are attributed to the Karoo lamb’s diet.

Only free range lamb, exclusive to the Karoo, raised without the use of growth hormones and antibiotics may be sold as Karoo lamb and carry the SA-GI logo. Tjopshop Carnarvon is a registered producer of Karoo lamb and our lamb products carry the official SA-GI logo.
