Cleaver Awards pick top cut butcheries

The annual Cleaver Awards have been announced, with the top national prize going to Uitkyk Vleismark, Lichtenburg. The Awards, an initiative of the South African Red Meat Industry Forum, recognise butcheries that meet the highest standards, according to consumers, across three categories - butcheries with four or more till points, butcheries with three or fewer till points and food market/supermarket butcheries.
