Meatco launched its Meatma shop in Oshakati at the Bonanza butchery on Friday. It is the third such shop in the country.
Meatma is a complete range of quality value-added meat products produced through Meatco’s local markets and value addition department. Meatma products are available at what is considered to be affordable prices.
Bonanza butchery, situated in the Oshakati main road next to the old Santorini hotel, was revamped as Meatco’s 3rd Meatma shop with the others located in Okahandja and Windhoek.
The range of Meatma products includes a variety of braaiwors such as beef griller, chakalaka, fiesta, legends, babalaas and barbecue. Also available are beef patties, beef mince, econo burgers, hindquarter leg, shin, club steak, matangara and many more.
Meatma aims to consistently provide the nation with a protein basket containing high quality products at family affordable prices. This initiative forms part of a wider Meatco market diversification strategy and is in support of the Ministry of Trade and Industry’s ‘Growth at Home’ focus, which aims to diversify the economy and encourage local value addition and manufacturing.
All the products are produced according to Meatco’s strict quality practices.
Members of the public are invited to the launch at Bonanza butchery, which runs from July 3 to 11 and have the opportunity to taste the products and take part in activities such as Spin & Win and lucky draws.
Some of the public who attended the launch over the weekend and tasted the products on offer were impressed with the discounts.
“I came to buy meat after I heard radio announcements about the specials and it’s true, we found the prices very low compared to other usual meat shops,” said one consumer.
“We are happy to have this new shop with many prizes to be won. Everyone coming is excited – young, old, women and men are all coming here,” said another consumer.
“The meat is very popular, people are winning and many just want to eat the braai meat. It is very exciting, people are coming from their workplaces after hearing about the Meatma bonanza,” said a third consumer.
The Meatma products are also available at other retail shops allowing both individuals and businesses to purchase the quality products produced by Meatco.
