Times have certainly changed since the world of computers came into existence. This has impacted nearly every facet of our modern lives, including how we purchase our food.
Forty years ago, it would have been inconceivable that people would choose to buy their fresh food without seeing it ‘in person’ – how would you ensure it was adequate quality and the exact quantity you needed? What if there were other things that piqued your interest – and appetite – when you were at the shop? What if you forget that thing you need, which you wouldn’t do – or be yelled at when you get home – if you were browsing the shop or supermarket aisle?
Today, however, shopping online is much more common, including for fresh food like meat.
This is particularly the case in congested cities like London.
Did you know that London has won the unenviable award for the most congested city in the world? Yes, it’s true. With a population of more than 9.7 million people in 2024, moving around our beloved historic city can be a nightmare, especially at peak hours.
This, combined with our increasingly busy lives, can mean that shopping in person is no longer an enjoyable task, but a stressful one.
Many online butchers offer a great product range and flexible delivery
This brings us to buying meat from an online butcher in London. Again, what if you don’t like the look of the cut? What if they only deliver set quantities that will be too large for your needs, especially if you live alone and have limited fridge/freezer space?
This is increasingly not a concern. Butchers are moving with the times and recognising the increasing desire of many people to shop from the quietness of their computer or phone. They are providing more flexibility in the type and sizes of their products. Not only that, they deliver directly to your door and, often, you can choose the delivery day and time frame that best suits you. No more wrestling with traffic or trying to find parking.
Suppose you are considering starting to use an online butcher. In that case, we recommend that you read more about what products they are offering via online delivery, any price difference between in-store and online shopping, delivery fees, and how soon after ordering you will receive your goods.
