The UK's first independent transparency platform for animal welfare in the meat industry — scan, score, and act.

What is Tender?

The Mission

Tender is the UK's first independent transparency platform dedicated to auditing the animal welfare standards of the meat industry — translating opaque government records into a simple, actionable Tender Score.

The Transparency Gap

While 99.8% of licensed facilities have CCTV oversight, almost none of that data is available to the public. We bridge this gap — your right to know what happens before the packaging.

Radical Independence

We are not affiliated with any government body or industry lobby. Our loyalty lies exclusively with the consumer and the animal. No ads. No partnerships. No compromise.

The Process

How Does
Tender Work?

01

Scan or Enter the Mark

Use our OCR Vision scanner to identify the oval "Health Mark" found on any UK meat product. This is the facility's unique fingerprint — your entry point into the audit trail.

02

The Scoring Engine

Our proprietary algorithm analyses 9 core welfare-proxy metrics — Stunning Method (40%), Throughput Size, Transport Reach, Resting Policy, and more — producing a score from 0–100.

03

Investigative Overlay

We cross-reference facility IDs against 14 years of longitudinal data and our Investigative Record — a live feed of news exposés and undercover audit annotations that adjust scores in real time.

04

Radical Results

Instantly view a score from 0–100. Facilities involved in non-stun practices are automatically hard-capped at a score of 39, ensuring a welfare-first baseline that cannot be gamed.

05

Retailer Mapping

See which major UK supermarkets are linked to that specific facility through our Supply Link relational engine — and what their aggregate welfare score means for your weekly shop.

06

Consumer Action

The final step is the most critical: Accountability. Transparency is only as powerful as the action it inspires. Your informed choice is the market signal that drives welfare improvement.

Features

Who Tender Is For

Unity Through
Empathy.

Whether you are motivated by personal ethics, religious conviction, culinary excellence, or systemic reform, your point of entry is unique — but our destination is the same. Tender is the shared infrastructure for a community united by a single, uncompromising standard: the radical protection of animal welfare.

The Conscious Carnivore

Consumers who choose to eat meat but refuse to ignore the industrial process behind it. They want proof, not promises.

The Pragmatic Advocate

Vegans, vegetarians, and activists who understand that industry-wide change requires engagement, not just abstention.

The Welfare Traditionalist

Those firmly opposed to non-stun slaughter on secular or welfare grounds, who want hard data to back their conviction.

The Culinary Purist

Gastronomes and quality-first buyers who understand that animal welfare is directly correlated with the physical integrity of the product.

The Ethical Localist

Those who believe that welfare is lost in the logistics of long-distance hauling and centralised industrial hubs. Local sourcing is a moral position.

The Industry Auditor

Small business owners, butchers, and chefs who need to verify that their suppliers' welfare claims match the independently sourced data.

The Transparency Sleuth

Tech-savvy sceptics who believe that Radical Transparency is the only cure for a hidden system. If the data exists, it should be public.

The Sustainability Guardian

Those focused on the future of food, balancing animal welfare with ecological impact, local economies, and systemic industry reform.
