McMurchie's, a traditional family butcher, offers a wide variety of local meats, homemade pies, and handcrafted sausages. Established in 1968 by James Albert McMurchie, the Durham-based shop earned membership in the prestigious Butchers Q Guild, known for its excellence in quality. After James's retirement in 1994, his son John took over and expanded the business, adding a kitchen, bakery, and delicatessen. Using RATIONAL iVario Pro and iCombi PRO cooking systems, the team efficiently prepares stews, soups, casseroles, pies, and more. By switching to RATIONAL systems, they reduced costs by 15%, allowing them to produce up to 100-200 ready meals and thousands of pies daily.
