About Us.

About Us.

If you’re a Kiwi, chances are the Mad Butcher is as familiar to you as Christmas in the sun and wearing jandals from November until April. The Mad Butcher was founded by the notable Sir Peter Leitch in 1971, and since then we’ve provided the meat for millions of Kiwi BBQs, roasts and other delicious meals.

At the Mad Butcher we believe in quality meat at a great price – that’s why all our carcass beef and lamb is NZ Quality Mark certified, our carcass fresh pork is 100% NZ grown, and our chicken is supplied by New Zealand’s leading poultry brand: Tegel. All meat is delivered to stores fresh each day, and cut and packed on site by skilled staff.

You can’t get much fresher than that! In-store Master Butchers are available to cut meat to any requirement, along with providing advice on everything meat, from cooking to carving tips. We’re passionate about meat, and our friendly service will make every visit to the Mad Butcher a pleasure.

Community.

The Mad Butcher has always been a huge supporter of the local community – Sir Peter Leitch, the Mad Butcher himself – was awarded the Queen’s Service Medal for service to the community in 1991. Even Pete himself doesn’t know how much he’s raised or personally given to charity, but it certainly runs to millions of dollars.

The Mad Butcher is pleased to support the NZ Community with a HAND UP price for BBQ Sausages. All you need to do is pop into your local Mad Butcher Store let them know what you are fundraising for and they will be happy to supply the BBQ sausages to you.
