Our History

Fletcher's Butchers has been a cornerstone of Norton, North Yorkshire, since the early 1920s. The Fletcher family, who owned shops in Scarborough and Bridlington, started the business, and in 1962, Mr Fletcher passed the reins to his apprentice, Eric Hogg. Eric, who was well-known and respected in the shop and wider community, was remembered for his dedication to providing the best quality meats and services. Eric's son, Peter, joined the business in 1977, continuing the family tradition. Today, Peter manages a team of 10 staff members, maintaining the shop's reputation for quality and service.

Great British Butchery

Fletcher's Butchers oversees the meat from hoof to plate. Peter hand-selects all meat after inspecting the animal's passport and discussing welfare, rearing, and feed with the farmer at the auction. We take great care to ensure the best quality for our customers. Once the carcasses arrive at the premises, we hang the beef for 21 days, allowing for better taste and texture. All processing is carried out at our extensive premises, ensuring the quality of our products.

We cold smoke all our bacon using Applewood Chips, which provide a delicate and distinctive flavour. Recently, we imported an Italian curing cabinet for our homemade salamis and chorizos, allowing us to create these traditional products to the highest standards.

At Fletcher's Butchers, we remain committed to providing the best quality produce to our customers. Our family business remains an essential part of the local community, and we look forward to continuing to serve North Yorkshire for many years to come.
