Gerhard Metzger's Story

Gerhard Metzger's journey began in 1988 when he moved from Germany to Canada, bringing with him a deep-rooted passion for traditional butchery. Starting with a modest abattoir, his dedication quickly transformed Metzger Meats from a small operation into a renowned name in meat processing, known for its blend of European tradition and modern innovation. Under Gerhard's guidance, the company evolved, expanding its facilities while staying true to the artisanal methods that marked its inception.

Metzger Prioritizes Quality & Purity

From the outset, Metzger was more than just a meat processing facility; it was a beacon of quality, tradition, and innovation. In the early days, Gerhard worked on his family farm, honing his skills and understanding of the craft. His dedication and passion for quality soon led him to purchase an abattoir, laying the foundation for what would become a distinguished name in the industry.
