“RP Meats was founded in 1978 by Robert Powel, my father, Steve Thatcher, and Grenville Miller with a clear vision to build a wholesale meat company rooted in integrity, hard work, and strong relationships with local butchers.
Having grown up around the business, I understand the pride and responsibility that comes with supplying the trade. When I took over, my focus was simple. To carry forward the values they built this company on while continuing to strengthen the partnerships that matter most.
We take great pride in serving local butchers and farm shops with quality product, dependable service, and a personal approach. To us, wholesale is about more than supply. It is about trust, consistency, and standing by our word.
We are proud to support the businesses that keep our communities thriving, and we look forward to serving you for years to come.”
