Small beginnings.

Big Dreams.

Hertel Meats Ltd. was created in 1967, a small family enterprise, providing slaughter, cutting & wrapping, and further prcessing of beef, pork and game for local farmers and hunters. Within 10 years a major plant expansion was completed providing full time employment for many local people, some of whom, along with family members, are still employed. Strong growth continued and in 1980, Tom and his wife Helena established Hertel Meats as a limited company.

Customer Reviews

After discovering these wonderful local products, we won’t buy anything else! It’s always fresh, full of flavor, and delicious. Serving Hertel’s pork products never fails to please our guests too! We are fortunate to have such high quality, local, processed, and smoked meats from a well-established local company… and family run too!

Wow! Quality products really make a difference and Hertel’s is top quality. We really enjoyed their ham, and the bacon is incredible. Really – it’s simply top-shelf.

We appreciate that this family run, local business doesn’t use MSG or nitrates in their products. You can find their products on supermarket shelves or pick it up in person. Awesome!!
