About The

The Charolais Association of Texas


The Charolais Association of Texas was formed to provide breeders with the ability to sell their product to the commercial sector as well as seedstock producers at a fair market value.  This Organization exists so that our membership can stay informed with the latest industry standards and remain consistent in producing beef to meet our customer’s needs.

The Charolais Association of Texas is made up of members who have a strong desire to provide the beef industry with a product that will consistently be profitable from the producer to the consumer.  We are dedicated to the need to provide our customers with high quality bulls and replacement females that will meet the ever changing market demands.

The C.A.T. is also dedicated in the effort to establish good land management skills and environment friendly programs.  The need for strong family and friends is certainly not a forgotten mission within our organization and that is why we support the Texas Junior Charolais Association as our Junior Affiliate Organization.
