The butchers we work with
At Localsearch, we market butcheries on quality and convenience. People choosing a local butcher over a supermarket are looking for cuts, sourcing and advice they can't get in an aisle. Meat packs, bulk orders and Christmas ordering are where the margin sits, and all three are searched locally by name.
What we hear most
- 1Supermarkets set the price expectation and win on convenience.
- 2Meat packs and bulk orders are the best margin but exist only on a chalkboard.
- 3Christmas and Easter orders create a rush no one can manage on the phone.

Questions butchers ask
How do we compete with supermarket pricing?
You don't — compete on sourcing, cuts, advice and packs. The customers you want are already choosing quality over the cheapest tray.
Are online orders worth it?
Pre-orders are. Full ecommerce is complex for fresh meat, but pack pre-orders and seasonal ordering are straightforward and remove the phone bottleneck.
What should we market at Christmas?
Pre-orders, opening early. Publish cut-off dates and take orders through a form — it's the single busiest and most profitable week of the year.
