Birtwistles Catering Butchers started life as a family butchers over 100 years ago. In 2003 MJ Birtwistle & Co Ltd was established, and since then the change has been dramatic; growing to 8 sites across the UK, and expanding the customer base from Regional to National. A new owner in 2011 has brought new investment, expertise and experience to the company, which has encouraged the company to grow fully supported by the experienced Board of Directors
We are the specialist Catering Butchers Division of the MJ Birtwistle & Co Food Group. We deliver quality meat to customers across the length and breadth of the UK, 365 days a year.
We do this from our sites in Manchester, Milton Keynes and Glasgow. Over recent years we’ve invested in a rapid expansion strategy, which allows us to deliver a more flexible and reliable service to customers nationally.
We serve all sectors of the food service industry ranging from hotels and restaurants to universities, schools and events. Our product range of over 6,000 SKUs covers all species: beef, lamb, pork, gammon, bacon, sausage, poultry and charcuterie.
When you work with Birtwistles you get much more than just great meat. We believe that through hard work, passion and attention to detail we can provide a service that meets and hopefully exceeds our customers’ needs. It sounds simple, but being able to consistently meet our customers' demands is the foundation of our success. We take a flexible and proactive approach to the way we manage our business. This is what makes us different and it's what allows us to always be ready to respond to whatever our customers need, whenever they need it.
