Watlington Team

We have a talented team here at Calnan Brothers. A butchery team that boasts a wealth of skill, experience and knowledge. We are a traditional butchers working with whole carcasses, meaning we need the full spectrum of abilities from each butcher to prepare individual cuts and joints for our retail and wholesale customers.

We prepare each cut with strict attention to detail and quality to make sure our customers get consistency. Being a butcher requires dedication, determination and most of all passion, something every staff member of Calnan Brothers has.
