Who are we
About Our Owner
The Butcher’s Market was founded by businessman and entrepreneur, Abbas Sonday, in 2015. Raised and trained in a butcher environment by his dad, Mohammed Shafie Sonday, since the late 80’s, he is armed with the knowledge of over 30 years of production and retail experience, and he identified a gap in the market for fully halal butcheries that have a strong emphasis on quality, affordability and impeccable service, in ALL communities – and that’s how the TBM (The Butchers Market) brand was born – with a vision to supply only the best, to everyone!
