OUR STORY
Welcome to Cows & Kilos!
Here at Cows & Kilos, we are a NW Wisconsin based farm operation that is five generations deep in the cattle industry and over 20 years as a competitive powerlifter. The name "Cows & Kilos" represents our passion for cattle and all things barbell. "Kilos" is a more commonly used metric used for weight in the gym, in contrast to pounds. Collaborating these two passions created a vision to provide higher quality beef products across the Midwest as compared to your ordinary grocery chain stores. On top of that, we wanted to provide support for our privately owned gyms and small businesses that help support us to sell our products, so we created a kickback program. With every sale through Cows & Kilos, your gym or business where your scanned your QR code from receives a portion of the proceeds. This not only helps them keep their doors open...
MEET THE OWNER
Growing up on a traditional Midwest dairy farm, Kipp Hinz found his love for all things cattle. Between the early mornings in the barn, and late nights in the field, Kipp discovered there was no better life than a life with cows. Meanwhile, in high school, he stumbled on the sport of powerlifting which he felt transformed his and his family's life for the better and created a lifelong devotion to both lifestyles in the barn and in the gym.
Both share similar values and principles requiring hard work, determination, and delayed gratification. Lifestyles that demand serious commitment and dedication don't always result in how we want in the end, but through faith and a farmer's optimism Kipp always prevails. His passion led him to build a business model that integrates these two worlds, allowing each to enhance and support one another.
