National Butchers' Week was set up five years ago by leading business-to-business magazine Meat Trades Journal to promote the craft skills, knowledge and profile of retail butchers across the UK by leading a week of special focus and activities.
Aw so it's not an american thing? I saw that and immediately starting thinking about something to put in the ad about getting to know your butcher for that week. Maybe an introduction/photo so people know who the meat manager is and his experience so they know they're getting top quality :)
Meat Trades Journal are always e-mailing me to join in compitions and alike, but alas those days have gone. I can't be bothered to travel and stay away from the shop because there is not enough time . Of course if I could get a butcher that I could rely on ,that's a different matter. When running a business you will always need backup to make sure every thing runs smoothly.
