I noticed that there's a New Zeland club (AFNZRBA.)
Is there a club, Facebook group or something similar for production commercial REW TAMUK breeders?
 
Because it is not a recognized breed (it's still classified as just mixed/meat mutt I believe), there most likely is not a association or official club. It does look like there is a face book page though https://www.facebook.com/groups/tamukrabbits/ I don't have face book so I haven't looked at it, but I've herd it mentioned a few times.

Tamuk's were bred for meat production. Their value is in getting to fryer size by 70 days and the ability to have large litters year round. I believe that recognizing the breed for show would destroy the pure Tamuk breed because there is no recognized physical standard other than breeding for meat. Breeding for show would just turn the Tamuk into another pretty face.
 
There’s not a standard and likely won’t ever be, but there is a general type most breeders aim for. They’re to be mandolin type rather than commercial, or so I’ve been told.
