John joined the shop in the early 90's. He also comes from a butchery background and has worked in several retail outlets in the area. He was made a Director in 1999 and has helped the business develop into the New Millennium.
Allen started in the shop as a Saturday boy when he was 10 years old. He then attended Smithfield College for 2 years. This was followed by 2 years with an International Wholesale firm. The call of the family business eventually proved too strong and he has been in the shop ever since!
Ian came to us in 2000 after working for several years at another family owed retail shop. He also has a number of years experience at supermarket butchery running a Sainsbury's meat department.
Oliver started with us as a 13 year old Saturday boy and has now graduated to be a full time apprentice. He has completed an NVQ in Butchery with full distinctions. He also made it to the final 20 in 'The Young Butcher of The Year' on BBC 3 in 2010.
Maurice, Johns father, has worked at all levels of the trade, including owning his own shop. He is now semi-retired and comes in three times a week.
