Our Story: A Rich Heritage of Quality and Service
Wilsons Butchers, a proud family business now in its fifth generation, has been serving the local community with the finest quality meats and exceptional customer service since 1928. Founded by George Wilson, the shop was taken over by his wife Sybil after George's untimely death, with the help of her partner Harold. In 1985, the reins were passed to the Green brothers, Andrew and John, who have continued the legacy of quality and service established by their predecessors.
A Diverse Range of Quality Products
While we remain committed to our roots as a traditional family butcher, we have expanded and diversified our product range over the years to include pies, cooked meats, and a wide variety of handmade sausages. Our commitment to quality has never wavered, and we are proud to have been named 'England's Best Butcher 2005 - 2006' and 'Britain's Best Butcher 2013-2014'. Our reputation is built on our dedication to providing only the best quality products, backed up by customer service levels that we strive to make second to none.
Famous for Our Pies
Our pies, particularly our pork pies, have gained national recognition and have been a significant part of our business since Robert (Bob) Green introduced them. We have won numerous awards for our pies, including being named Best Small Pork Pie on three occasions at the Great Yorkshire Pie competition, and being named in the top four places of the Pork Pie Appreciation Society annual competition. Our pies are a testament to our commitment to quality and innovation, and we are proud to offer them alongside our traditional meat products.
From Field to Fork
At Wilsons Butchers, we are committed to sourcing our products responsibly and ethically. We believe in the importance of traceability and know the origins of all our products, from field to fork. Our beef, for example, is sourced from local farms and is fully traceable from farm to fork. We are proud of our commitment to quality and transparency, and are happy to answer any questions you may have about our products.
Expanding to Meet Your Needs
In 2013, after over 25 years at our original shop, we expanded into the shop next door, allowing us to better serve our customers and offer an even wider range of products. We are committed to continuing to evolve and expand to meet the needs of our customers, while remaining true to our heritage of quality and service.
