Wholesaler Reynolds has purchased a stake in Select Butchery, boosting its capacity to supply meat and poultry to the foodservice sector.
The business said the new arrangement would enable it to offer a wider variety of bespoke, freshly cut meats to clients.
“Both Reynolds and Select Butchery share similar family values and take enormous pride in their product,” said Reynolds founder and MD Tony Reynolds. “I’ve no doubt that we have a great future together.
“This new partnership reinforces Reynolds’ ambition of becoming the UK’s go-to-solution for all types of fresh food, most admired for our great people, strategic partnerships and unrivalled quality and service.”
In the wake of the pandemic, Reynolds diversified its offering and now has a number of specialist businesses supplying meat, fish and prepared foods, including Shoal, Davin Foods, Solstice and Carnivore.
Select Butchery Founder and MD James George said: “Synergies between the two companies will undoubtedly offer huge benefits for everyone concerned. For Select, accessing Reynolds’ distribution network and operational capabilities means we will become a nationally available brand overnight.
“I am also delighted to announce that we will be developing a new range of premium, sustainable and ethical meat products under the Turner & George brand, which will shortly be available to the foodservice market for the first time.”
