Hugh Black & Sons

Established in 1987 by the late Mr Hugh Black, whose background specializing in farming prime beef cattle, proved an asset to the introduction of their butchery business.

Selling the family’s 300 acre farm in 1987 and using the proceeds Hugh Black bought a butchers shop in Armadale, West Lothian. Burnhouse Farm had been a beef farm for generations but despite no formal butchery knowledge Hugh was determined to make this change a success.

This determination to succeed carried on to his son’s Craig & Hugh jnr. on his passing in 2002, with the business growing considerably and now supporting 12 Butchers Shops across West Lothian, South Lanarkshire and Fife, along with a 9,500 square foot Bathgate Factory supporting a dedicated Bakery & Butchery and also a specialised Cutting Plant at Wishaw Abbatoir.
