(Entertainment-NewsWire.com, November 12, 2015 ) Vancouver, BC -- Annually, the popular Vancouver news source, The Georgia Straight, conducts a city-wide search for the best local companies within Vancouver. Their search covers every industry, big or small, and winners are selected through public polling and voting. Democracy at it's best! 'Best' categories range from meat stores to home decor, and everything in between. As an entrepreneurial city, full of startups and small businesses, the competition is stiff and the title of Georgia Straight's 'Best' has become a known indication for quality products, unbeatable service and outstanding company value throughout the Lower Mainland.
This year, Georgia Straight announced that in the category of Best Butcher Shop, Market Meats received a resounding first-place win! This wonderful recognition came as a shock, surprise and honour for the Market Meats team, who, unlike many larger producers, specialize in exotic meats and gourmet cuts. "We couldn't be more excited about our win! Being the best at anything is pretty exciting, let alone in the industry that you're absolutely in love with!" Says Zul Suleman, owner and head butcher of Market Meats. "From the start, we've always strived to offer a high quality meat selection that goes beyond the regular drumstick or thigh. The difference between quality meat and the run-off-the-mill grocery brand is shocking. We want to help people understand the difference." Explained Suleman.
A relatively niche market, the gourmet meat selection at Market Meats cannot be found at majority of butcher shop locations and the quality of service is unlike any other shop found in Vancouver. Thus, setting them apart from their competition by sheer inventory diversity and unparalleled service and customer care.
The Market Meats team are the true backbone of their recent Georgia Straight win. At Vancouver's best butcher shop, Market Meats, the staff are trained, educated and experienced with meats of all varieties. Armed with endless knowledge on varying cuts and cuisines, the Market Meats staff offer a huge range of culinary tips and tricks both in-store and on their website. "A lot of people don't know the right questions to ask or what to look for in specialty meats." Says Suleman, "but that's why we're here to help. We don't want people to feel overwhelmed when they walk in [to Market Meats]". These informative tidbits have given Market Meats a leg up above their competition as their customers continue to rave about the quality service and helpful staff members that are shadowed only by the top Kitsilano butcher shop's delectable gourmet cuts. "Our staff are trusted sources of information when it comes to meat. They have all the answers, really. And I'm proud to see that the community is starting to view us as more than just a butcher, but also a place to learn, taste and get excited about food!"
