How a Butcher Shop Owner in Scotland Uses Barter
Thanks Gordon,
How a Butcher Shop Owner In Scotland Uses Barter Krista Interviewed her friend who owns the local Butcher Shop. OK, they Barter Meat, Meat pies, meaty stuff for: - fridge/freezer, hot cabinet repairs - buying stock reduced from the delivery drivers (eggs, pie shells, pastries, sausage rolls, bridies) - gets sold for 3 times what they paid for it - an arrangement with the cash and carry man who lends them the keys to the warehouse. - getting the cars and vans repaired - deal to butcher lambs for the guy that sells lamb - for resale at higher prices - same with the chicken orders - word of mouth sales from people who send other people to order from the shop and pay extra for the orders to be picked up. The meat market is 6 doors away and they're going anyway. They make 50% on top of salary with this one. - people to tell them about supermarket special deals on meat (Easter, Christmas etc), they resell it in the shop at markup (double at Christmas) - overalls, cloths, cleaning supplies Thanks, Glenn |
