HG Walter

HG Walter is a family-owned premium butcher in the UK, delivering their high quality meat products to some of the finest restaurants and highly renowned chefs in the country.

HG Walter partnered up with Oakley to design, build and fit out their new 100,000 sqft future proofed meat production facility.

Striving to be one of the best butchers in the UK, HG Walter have experienced significant growth over the past few years, creating a need for expansion of their meat production facilities to keep up with the higher demand.

This led the owners of HG Walter to partner with Oakley from the design stage through to fit out and completion.

Oakley’s turnkey approach gave the owners of HG Walter clear visibility at every stage of their expansion. With extensive design and build experience, Oakley delivered a smooth, end-to-end project tailored to HG Walter’s production flow, budget, and timeline.

An expansion of this size can be stressful, especially when having little experience in running a project of this nature. Managing Director Adam Heanen, recognised the complexities of the project and knew he required a food industry design and build partner to guide him through this next big step.

With Oakley on board, the owners of HG Walter were able to place their trust in an in-house design and build team that brought expertise and experience to the project – ultimately delivering an outstanding meat processing facility.

HG Walter’s new 3-storey 100,000sqft facility includes:

• Butchery and meat picking rooms
• Carcass rooms
• Pallet and despatch fridges
• Pallet freezer
• Segregated meat processing areas and coldstore facilities for beef, lamb, pork, chicken, bacon, burgers, sausages.
