![]() Kenneth Wins Young Butcher of the Year ![]() Shayne Wins Young Butcher of the Year
Both directors have remarkably similar profiles which, no doubt, is
a large
contributing factor to the overwhelmingly successful partnership forged by them. Both brothers Kenneth and Shayne, it seems were destined to continue the family line of Master Butchers, as every generation before
them
followed this profession, dating back over 300 years.
They cultivated their love and flair for this profession from an
early age,
spending every available hour after school, weekends and school
holidays
working alongside their father John in the meat business.
After graduation from the
Institute of Meat
with distinctions, both
of them
used their skills and passion for the meat business to compete in
and
successfully achieve the
‘Connaught Young Butcher of the Year’
and ‘Irish
Young Butcher of the Year’
awards respectively
Both directors also have the rare title of being ‘Master Butchers’.
This title is
held by only a small percentage of butchers in Ireland. To obtain
it, the
individual must be qualified in the handling of livestock, qualified
in all aspects of abbatoir lairage and slaughter and also qualified in deboning,
dressing and sales of meat products.
This in depth professional knowledge and expertise gives our
customers the confidence to know that they are dealing with a company led by two of the most qualified Meat Professionals in the country. Above: Shayne & Kenneth receiving the Ulster Bank Business Achievement Award, pictured with Mary Regan from Ulster Bank. |
