Promoting product concepts – created for craft butchers Dalziel Ltd, Unit F1 Summit Park, Whistler Drive, Castleford WF10 5HX invested where and when he could in equipment and fittings, never losing sight of his two staples in business, quality and good service. Initially, Brindon bought all his meat live from Penistone Market, just selling raw meat to start with and then cooked meats as well as the business grew. He reached a point in 1998, just six years in, when he felt it was time to push things forward and go for membership of the Butchers Q Guild, who stand for skill, craftsmanship and above all, quality. Being a member of the Guild really acknowledges that you are at a higher level. To Brindon’s amazement he was refused, on account of his shop not being up to a high enough standard. Knowing how keen he was, one of the Guild members took Brindon to see a local award-winning Guild member who is now a firm friend: the award-winning Lishman’s of Ilkley. Wow! Brindon was blown away at the standard of their premises. He now had a goal to aim for! He came straight back to Hay Edge and ripped out his counter and replaced it and converted the back shop into a deli. After some more cosmetic attention, he re-applied and just got in. Phew! Things have now turned full circle as Brindon himself is now regional chairman for the Q Guild. Continues on page 50 01977 605 590
