Scott Mueller founded Samson in 1986 to serve producers by building innovative and sustainable agricultural systems. The Process Verified Program (PVP) certifies Source & Age, NHTC, Samson Verified Natural, and numerous other claims sought after by stakeholders in the beef industry. A culmination of Samson's original mission and US Roundtable for Sustainable Beef (USRSB) framework, Samson's SMART+ is Samson's proprietary program which serves as a platform to certify and recognize cattle producers who have achieved responsible cattle production. ## We're passionate about customer service. Samson has the most user-friendly enrollment and verification process in the industry. > "We made the switch to Samson from another verification program and it's been a good fit ever since.
