  • Clean and well maintain facility, we make it a priority to clean the holding, unload, and feed pens on a WEEKLY basis. This takes manpower, and new and up to date machinery to do this job every week.
  • Feed for the cattle is selected from our regular hay producers that know what is needed for our customers. We do pay more for our feed, for better quality, not just the cheapest.
  • We have one of the most aggressive lines of front row of order buyers in Manitoba, they basically represent all feedlots, and backgrounding lots all across Canada.

  • Auctioneering your livestock, we have professional auctioneers that have the experience in selling your cattle on a weekly basis.
  • Our ring may be a little smaller than our competitions, however, after many years of marketing cattle, it still seems very functional, and practical, and ideal for the speed of our sales.
  • We have a custom-made sorting area that mimics our ring, so the cattle flow into pens with less stress and less time to reach the final sort. And can be fully functional with 1 employee catching with 2 pens, and the grader available to catch into a pen also.
  • We now have 2 scales in full operation for show listing weighups the day before.
  • Every year, we pour many $ into the maintenance and improvement of our back pens and also building every summer.

Many trucking companies are around this auction market for access to load your cattle, by well experienced trucking companies.

Many reasons why OUR Showlist method of cattle marketing brings you the most returns..
  1. Our Showlist system focusses on marketing each individual ranch or producer by there management skills, vaccination programs, and feedlot history of your cattle's performance, through return buyer support, and knowledge of your cattle. This is not a pre-sort sale with all sellers mixed, we keep all consignors separated, and focus on the reputation of each individual producer.

  2. This saves valuable shrink, and with shrink saved, many dollars are saved (likely between 1% and as high as 5% saved), and with prices at an ave of $3.00/lbs on a 600lbs calf is easily save $18.00 to $60.00/hd in hidden losses. So with a $3.00/hd Showlist charge, feed, and selling commission charges, you are still DOLLARS ahead, and I could easily say, after weighing and selling thousands of cattle, many producers have saved well over there full selling charge expenses.

  3. As owner, I inspect most cattle first hand going into showlist. And with our knowledgeable sorting and clerking staff, we all make a second effort on your calves, in a way, that will return the most dollars back to the producer, depending on market trends that particular week.

  4. Following weighup, the showlisted cattle will be placed on feed up to sale time. This creates less stress on the cattle, and they look respectable while passing through the sales ring, and can easily be loaded on Eastern trucks very quickly if have to.

  5. All cattle on the showlist, is marketed on a sales catalogue that is uploaded to our web site the night before sale. This is a very positive tool in the marketing of your cattle, as buyers and feedlots, can make advance decisions and how to purchased, which returns very aggressive prices.

  6. The showlisting will also be advertised on our social media platforms (Facebook, Instagram, Twitter)

  7. SRAM has 14-18 employees on hand the up to 2 days prior to sale time, to serve you, in the marketing of your cattle, the best way possible. As we all know, it's your main paycheck of the year, so we strive to do the best job we can, for your highest return possible.

  8. I (Myles Masson) has been involved in cattle marketing for over 40 years, I have experienced the marketing of cattle through on-farm video, internet sales, direct sales, order buying, and forward contracting, and 95 % of the time, selling this method, is, by far, the best way to market your cattle. Cattle are displayed properly, weights are proper, no guessing. This method creates an aggressive "price discovery" system, with a full line of order buyers on hand, representing feedlots and backrounding lots all through the Eastern and Western Provinces.

Testimonials

We are a family operation that manages a large mixed grain and cattle farm, we calve over 2000 Simmental x cows from Feb through March/April. And we are extremely pleased with Myles and the SRAM, when it comes to his “forward thinking” in the way his ring and alleys are set up for a fast and efficient cattle sale, and his “second effort” in process of marketing our cattle. Along with his advanced technology knowledge, marketing experience, and the development of his “weekly showlist “ these 3 combinations alone is what attracted us to market ALL our cattle there. Also, dealing with Myles and his friendly staff on a yearly basis, we have established a great customer relationship that will go forward well into the future.

Here at Triple Oak Farms, Ken and I along with our kids Austin and Autumn run a 250 head Charolais cross cow/calf operation in the Interlake .

We are a very hands on operation that puts a lot of effort into bringing a top quality product to the sale ring. We wanted our name attached to them to build our reputation and found Myles forward thinking and how he runs his show list sale fit exactly what we were looking for. The calves are sorted great and handled well, we now have very few cut outs and bigger groups running through the ring where they are met by a very strong front row of reputable buyers . We love how quickly they are weighed and sorted and put back on feed which in my mind keeps the calves healthier going to their new homes and minimizes stress and shrink . We have been very pleased with Myles and the staff at SRAM. They work together with us at getting our calves marketed with confidence and to the best to everyone’s abilities.

We run a Red Angus x Simmental cow-calf operation in Rorketon.  We have been dealing with the SRAM from day one.  We have complete confidence in marketing our calves with Myles.  Over the years Myles has made his business a top-notch operation with a great facility.  We like how the showlist works. Weighing, grouping right off the truck, and getting them on feed and water makes the animals healthier come sale day.  Sales are quick and efficient, lots of reputable buyers, staff are very friendly and we have a great rapport with Myles.  As we continue we look forward to doing business with the SRAM
