as you have a takeaway advertise it round the local office blocks, especially if you could offer delivery. I have worked in call centres most of my life and they all seem to send out especially on Fridays

Hi Purplerain,

If you offer home delivery you could sign up with mylocalbutcher.co.uk  I have ordered from butchers through the site and am very pleased with the service I have received.

This could save you the costs of setting up your own website. Remember that your own site is still invisible to the general public unless you spend time and money promoting it. You won't be able to reach enough customers just by word of mouth.

As for what would I buy - sausages, burgers, minced beef, pork, lamb or mutton, pork/lamb chops, steaks, lamb roasting joints, chicken fillet, whole chickens, liver, lamb shanks, oxtail, shin beef are all regular buys for me. I also like marinated , ready to cook meals and peppered steaks etc.

Beef stew tonight!

Hope this helps

Not into Facebook or any media sites but here are some links to tried and tested recipes. There is a demand for this type of sausage.
Boerewors (Farmers sausage)

Its always a problem getting people through the door and getting yourself known. Why not have a wee tasting evening now and again..

I for one can honestly say if you try the meat from your local butchers you will never buy supermarket crap again.
Best of luck Purplerain.

We use Lords butchers in Middleton, they have a website and do mail order. The great thing about going into their tiny shop (or queueing outside) is that the staff really know their stuff, where the meat comes from, and how it will be best cooked. And they do offer choices, not all their meat is expensive, they do offer some cheaper stuff as well. Bought haggis and venison mix sausages yesterday.
