All Wagyu beef served at Churrasco Phuket Steakhouse is certified by the Australian Wagyu Association (AWA). This is why – AWA is the world’s largest breed association for Wagyu cattle outside of Japan. Established in 1988, the AWA has played a pivotal role in developing and promoting the Wagyu industry in Australia, making the country a global leader in high-quality beef production.

Wagyu cattle, renowned for their exceptional marbling, tenderness, and rich flavor, were first introduced to Australia in the early 1990s. The AWA emerged as a response to the growing interest in this premium breed. Its mission was clear: to ensure the integrity of Wagyu genetics, facilitate research and development, and provide support for breeders to achieve excellence.

One of the AWA’s key functions is maintaining a comprehensive registry of Wagyu cattle. This registry ensures the genetic purity of the breed, tracks lineage, and provides breeders with tools to make informed decisions about herd improvement. Through rigorous DNA testing, the association guarantees traceability and transparency, which are vital for maintaining consumer trust in premium Wagyu beef.

The AWA is also instrumental in research and education. By collaborating with universities and industry partners, the association fosters advancements in genetics, breeding practices, and sustainability. Its efforts have contributed to the development of innovative tools such as the Wagyu BREEDPLAN, which provides genetic evaluations to help breeders optimize meat quality and productivity.

The global demand for Wagyu beef continues to rise, and the AWA’s role is more critical than ever. Its commitment to excellence has cemented Australia as a leading exporter of Wagyu beef, supplying premium markets across the world. By supporting breeders and ensuring the highest standards, the AWA not only upholds the reputation of Australian Wagyu but also contributes significantly to the nation’s agricultural economy.
