Farmer Sharp: Building Sustainable Supply Networks

At Farmer Sharp, I help farm shops and butchers create strong, sustainable supply chains for native and rare breed meats. With decades of hands-on experience, I’ve worked with farmers, chefs, and customers to connect exceptional produce to businesses that value quality and tradition.

Why Work with Me?

I’m not just a consultant—I’ve been where you are. As the founder of a successful wholesale and retail business, I’ve supplied the world’s best restaurants and customers at Borough Market in London with premium Herdwick mutton, Galloway beef, and naturally reared veal. I also collaborated with a cooperative of over 50 Lake District farmers to bring their incredible products to high-value markets.

This experience gives me a unique understanding of what it takes to source, process, and deliver exceptional meat while building a profitable business.

1. Supply Chain Development

I specialize in helping businesses create reliable supply networks with farmers who rear rare and native breeds. Whether you’re looking for Herdwick lamb, Galloway beef, or other unique products, I can connect you with trusted suppliers committed to ethical and sustainable practices.

2. Tailored Strategic Advice

Every farm shop and butcher is different. I work with you to:

• Identify opportunities for growth and differentiation.
• Source high-quality products that meet your customers’ expectations.
• Build a brand that celebrates the heritage and flavour of native breeds.

3. Operational Support

From butchery techniques to customer engagement, I provide practical advice on:

• Maximizing yield and reducing waste.
• Highlighting the unique qualities of native and rare breed meats.
• Training your team to tell the story of your products and build lasting customer relationships.

4. Marketing and Branding Guidance

Today’s customers value authenticity. I’ll help you craft a compelling narrative about your supply chain, celebrating the traditions and heritage behind the meats you sell. This helps build trust and loyalty with your customers.

5. A Legacy of Quality

When I started supplying Herdwick mutton and Galloway beef, it wasn’t just about selling meat—it was about connecting people to something real. My products found their way onto the plates of world-class chefs and into the homes of customers who appreciated quality.

Now, I want to share that knowledge with you. By building strong supply networks and focusing on quality, you can create a business that stands out for all the right reasons.

Let’s Work Together

If you’re ready to strengthen your supply chain, introduce exceptional products, or grow your business sustainably, I’d love to help.
