We are absolutely thrilled to announce that Walter Rose & Son has been named Best Large Butchery Business in the South of England 2025 at this year’s prestigious National Craft Butchers Awards!

The award ceremony, held on 30th June 2025, brought together the very best in the butchery trade from across the country to celebrate excellence, tradition, and innovation within the craft. To receive such a highly regarded accolade is a tremendous honour – and one that reflects the passion, skill, and dedication of every member of the Walter Rose & Son team.

Founded in 1847, Walter Rose & Son has proudly served generations of customers and chefs with the finest quality meat, prepared using time-honoured techniques and a deep respect for provenance. Whether supplying local households or Michelin-starred kitchens, our focus has always been on delivering outstanding service, exceptional produce, and unwavering craftsmanship.

To be recognised as the leading large butchery business in the South of England by such a respected organisation is not only a celebration of our heritage, but a powerful endorsement of our continued commitment to quality and innovation in 2025 and beyond.

We extend our heartfelt thanks to National Craft Butchers for this honour, and to our loyal customers, farming partners, and incredible staff – without whom this achievement would not have been possible.

Here’s to more success, continued excellence, and raising the standard for British butchery.

Thank you for your continued support.
