Our Story
We have come a long way since our founding in 2011. From humble beginnings, within ten years we've transformed accessibility to better meat, and won Online Butcher of the Year for the third time.
farming the traditional way
We've built close relationships with our suppliers, cemented by years of cooperation. Our supply chain is built on trust and respect for the expertise of farmers, and we pay a fair price for their craft.
Our trusted suppliers do things the old-fashioned way. That means high welfare standards. Our meat is always British and free range, and the animals graze on pasture and natural feeds in the great outdoors. We do not use growth promoters, and do not support routine preventative use of antibiotics.
Heritage Breeds Make The Difference
Ten years ago, the list of vulnerable rare beef, sheep, and pork breeds was worryingly long. Since then, we have widened the home cook's access to heritage breed meat. Working with our farmers, we have encouraged them to breed and rear more of these wonderful creatures.
An important milestone in our history has been helping our farmers invest in the future of breeds. David Harrison our Dexter and Belted Galloway farmer has invested in a new bull, named Billy Bremner, to grow his herd.
In 2021, we went a step further, financing the foundation of two new herds of rare breed cattle at Castle Bolton in Wensleydale. We are helping secure the future of the White Park and Gloucester breeds for the years to come.
The Romance of Home Cooking
Farmison & Co has been built to serve the home cook. British food culture is enjoying a renaissance, and Farmison & Co is part of this as the nation engages with local produce. The joy of preparing, sharing, and enjoying food is a universal pleasure, the basis of human interactions.
We believe that home cooking food is key to a healthy, nourishing diet. Our quality produce is the basis for appreciating food, and we have worked with chef Jeff Baker since our foundation to provide us with recipes and chef-prepared cuts.
Traditional High Quality Meat
With the home cook in mind, we immediately realised that the quality of meat is strongly linked to traditional farming practices, and the expertise and pride of the Master Butcher. We are used to hearing the refrain, "this is how meat used to taste," as we roll back the damage of industrialised practices in food.
Classic Butchery Skills
We are safeguarding the future of butchery, taking on new apprentices and investing in our state of the art dry ageing store. Our Master Butchers oversee the maturation process, and cut the hanging meat to order so your meat arrives in prime condition. They pass on the tricks of the trade to the younger generation of butchers coming through.
The expertise of our butchers is matched by Jeff Baker, our in house Executive Chef. Jeff writes a recipe for every cut in our range, and collaborates with our butchers to produce new and exciting chef-prepared cuts.
Award Winning Online Butchers
Winning awards has been a true testament to the hard work and dedication that goes into providing the nation with better quality meat in the comfort of their homes. Since we began in 2011, we are proud to have won several awards including online butcher's shop of the year, three times, and innovation of the year award 2022 for our saucepan ready range. Including more recently, where we were finalists in the Eat Game Awards 2023 for best multiple retailer.
All of this is possible through our close relationship with our British farmers, who put time into slowly rearing their meat for the best quality possible.
Passion To Eat Better Meat
Taste is everything. Without it there would be no Farmison & Co. It is this passion for the joy of home cooking and where better meat comes from that sparked the idea that has grown into our award-winning butchery today.
