Taking place in the first full week of March, National Butchers’ Week brings together butchers across the UK to celebrate their craft, raise public awareness, and highlight the value of independent butchers within the food supply chain.
At Weald Packaging Supplies, we use this week to recognise the skill behind the counter and to reinforce our role as the UK’s most trusted butchery packaging supplier. We work alongside independent and online butchers, not just as a supplier, but as a long-term packaging partner.
Butchery is a skilled profession built on knowledge, experience and precision. National Butchers’ Week shines a spotlight on the butchers who:
These businesses are the backbone of local food culture and continue to set the standard for quality, provenance and customer service.
National Butchers’ Week also encourages consumers to visit independent butcher shops, try new cuts or products, and share their experiences online. Choosing a local butcher offers clear advantages.
Independent butchers often source meat from trusted local farms, offering better traceability and consistently high standards.
Butchers provide specialist knowledge on cuts, cooking techniques, portion sizes and even questions such as what are the best glazes for butchery products? This level of expertise is difficult to find elsewhere.
Supporting local butchers helps reduce food miles, supports ethical farming practices, and contributes to more sustainable food choices.
Presentation plays a vital role in how meat is perceived. High-quality products deserve packaging that reflects their value. The right meat packaging solutions help butchers showcase products clearly, maintain freshness, and encourage purchase.
In many cases, effective packaging for meat can be the deciding factor between a product being chosen or overlooked.
At Weald Packaging Supplies, we offer practical, reliable packaging for butchers that supports both presentation and performance.
