Roger Scott, manager of Joseph Morris Butchers, Rugby said: “Local produce is very important to us in terms of quality for customers and welfare for the animals.
“We’re delighted to become members of the Q Guild – we hope this will help take our shops from strength to strength.”
Jamie Archer, who runs Archer’s Butchers – which was founded by his grandfather – said that becoming a Q Guild member was a sign of the shop’s ambition: “The members of the Q Guild are at the pinnacle of their trade.
“We wanted to better ourselves, to be the best that we possibly can be. I’ve learnt a lot from my dad and other butchers, but to have this wider network is invaluable.”
Gordon Newlands, general manager of the Q Guild, said: “We’re delighted to welcome these two new members to the Q Guild. We know that their quality and innovation will sit very nicely with the values of the Guild.”
