If you're a butcher, you know that keeping your products fresh isn't just about good business—it's about keeping your customers safe and staying compliant with the law. With new regulations requiring that all meat must be refrigerated while in transit, there has never been a better time to partner with a reliable refrigerated delivery provider. At The Fridge Co., we make it simple and stress-free for butchers to transport their goods safely, legally, and efficiently.
The New Meat Transport Regulations
The latest food safety law requires that any meat being transported—whether from your shop to a restaurant, caterer, or customer—must be kept at a safe, refrigerated temperature. Failure to comply can lead to fines, product recalls, or even closure of your business. This means investing in reliable refrigerated transport is no longer optional—it’s essential.
The Fresh Meat (Hygiene and Inspection) Regulations 1995
Fresh meat (carcases and cuts) must be loaded and transported at no more than +7°C. Offal has a maximum of +3°C. Frozen fresh meat must be at −12°C.
