Group of Meat Management award winners

Aubrey Allen has been named Catering Butcher of the Year 2025 at the prestigious Meat Management Industry Awards!

The awards ceremony, held in Birmingham, brought together leading names from across the UK meat industry to celebrate excellence, innovation, and quality. To take home the top prize in the Catering Butcher category is a huge honour for us, and we are so proud to be recognised among such talented peers.

Founded in 1933, Aubrey Allen has always been about more than just meat – it’s about doing things the right way. From our unwavering commitment to animal welfare and sustainability, to our dedication to full carcass utilisation and supporting British farmers, our values have guided us for over 90 years. Today, we are proud to supply award-winning meat and artisan cheese to some of the best chefs, restaurants, and hotels in the UK.

A proud family and team achievement

Russell Allen, our Managing Director and third-generation butcher, shared:

“We are absolutely delighted to receive this national recognition. It’s a proud moment not just for us as a family, but for the whole team. I want to thank our incredible staff, our loyal clients, and our farmers and suppliers who continue to work with us to raise the bar in quality and sustainability.”

This award reflects the passion and hard work of everyone at Aubrey Allen, from our butchers and cheesemongers to our logistics and support teams. It also recognises the amazing partnerships we’ve built with our customers and suppliers, who inspire us every day to keep raising standards.

Looking ahead

Our base may be in Coventry, but our vision is nationwide – to deliver the very best service, innovation, and product quality. Winning Catering Butcher of the Year 2025 is even more encouragement to keep pushing forward with even more energy, creativity, and care.

We’d like to say a heartfelt thank you to everyone who has supported us on this journey. This award belongs to all of you as much as it does to us.
