Over 125 years of only
the finest cooked meats


Our story started back in 1888 when Frank King opened up a Butchers Stall in Wigan's famous Market Hall. Mr King's stall went from strength to strength and quickly gained a reputation for quality and service, especially his home cooked meats.

Just as Frank King did 125 years ago we still manufacture the finest full muscle products, surpassing the quality of our competitors whilst keeping the price comparable.

We do this by combining traditional methods and recipes which have been passed from generation to generation with new technology and ideas.
