Known as 'Galway's newest butcher', Hickey Meats located in the west end of the city, is celebrating its first birthday in style.
Named as the winner of two 'Friendly Business Awards' for customer care and shop layout and design by the Junior Chamber International (JCI ), Hickey Meats have gone from strength to strength since opening its doors just 12 months ago. The man behind Hickey Meats is Paul Hickey. Having started butchering at just 13 years old, Paul was named as GMIT's Butchery Student of the Year in 2006, and had always dreamed of opening his own shop.
On May 19, 2023, this dream became a reality. Now living the dream, Paul loves to create new, exciting and tasty products from Hickey Meat's west end shop, adoring the buzz of Galway city while being able to chat to customers. Describing the amount of support from the people of Galway as being 'amazing', behind Hickey Meats is a great team of lads who are always happy to help with any questions, whether its about meal inspiration or cooking advice.
Committed to offering the finest meats which are 100 per cent traceable from local suppliers, Hickey Meats also caters to modern lifestyles through its easy-cook ranges, which also features low-fat and gluten free options. With a variety of sauces, condiments and a small selection of vegetables for sale in the shop, Hickey Meats has endeavoured to make your shopping trip as convenient as possible.
Providing the best value possible for customers is something Hickey Meats takes seriously, offering weekly events like 'Tenner Tuesday', 'Midweek Madness', as well as other offers. Hickey Meats are thrilled to supply their meats to some of the best restaurants and cafés in Galway.
On Saturday, May 25 from 3pm to 5pm, Hickey Meats will celebrate its first birthday party with a barbecue in the shop. Facilitated by their friends in SKG Catering, a selection of Hickey Meats burgers, sausages and kebabs will be available, and face painting and some prize giveaways are also planned for the day.
