Martins Meats

Martins Meats is a family butchers established in 2003 by husband and wife, Martin and Emma Gilder. Martins’ father and grandfather have been cattle farmers and dealers for many years.

“From the time I learnt to walk, I’ve been going to cattle markets and these experiences have given me the knowledge I needed to have “a good eye” for cattle buying. I still buy a lot of cattle “on the hoof”, in the field in the traditional way.”

Our farm, Hillview Farm Gretton, is home to our own longhorn cattle and located just 10 miles from the abattoir in Gloucester. It’s important that we have good, local relationships at every stage, from farm to plate. That is how we ensure the highest quality for the best price.

Martin’s passion for providing premium beef led him to set up his own butchers, in which he oversees the whole process. From producing and selecting the highest quality rare breed cattle through to ageing the meat in our Himalayan Rock Salt Chamber; we are able to ensure we produce the very best tasting meat.
