The opportunity
Why this business works now
A neighbourhood butchery serves regular household demand while earning additional sales from braai packs, restaurants, caterers and bulk buyers. Product quality, reliable refrigeration and careful stock control are central because meat is perishable and margins differ by cut. The plan explains sourcing, processing, display, pricing and sales.
Repeat local demand
Households and food businesses purchase fresh meat throughout the month.
Several product lines
Fresh cuts, braai packs, mince, wors and bulk orders support varied sales.
Cold-chain control
Receiving, refrigeration, processing and display are planned as one system.
