ABOUT THE HUNTING CONSORTIUM

Since 2008 we have been serving trophy hunters from more than 35 nations with taxidermy work and logistic solutions for their valuable hunting trophies. 

With our own eyes, we have seen the trophy quality that the hunters harvested, and we know how the hunters have evaluated the outfitters and the hunting farms. 

Some of these outfitters and hunting farms are rated as outstanding and selected to be included in the ‘ First Class Trophy HUNTING CONSORTIUM’. Our selection is based on many years of experience and insights into the trophy hunting community – and as the largest taxidermy company in Europe, we have seen a LOT in the past years…
