About Sligo Salers

Sligo Salers was established in 1995 with the importation of a bull and heifer from France.

The following year we imported two more heifers and we continued this process every year since. We are currently breeding sixty five Pedigree Saler cows. The foundation of the herd is built from careful selection of quality French Females from top prize winning French herds such as Vantal, Moulier, Brousse, and Roussel.

All our females are crossed with top French AI Sires. We believe it’s essential to use AI in producing an animal of high quality and maintain the high standards of the herd that we have set since the beginning

Last year we are proud to say that we are the first breeder to export a home bred bull back to France. Sligo Hamil was purchased by French breeder Rougier.
