From Farm to Butcher

Trusted Butchers, Fresh Every Morning

The Mile 12 meat section begins its day before most of Lagos wakes. By 3AM, deliveries from certified abattoirs are already arriving, freshly slaughtered beef from Fulani cattle traders, goat from Ogun State livestock farms, and live poultry from commercial farms in Oyo and Osun. The butchers are ready before dawn, and by the time the market opens, the freshest cuts are already laid out.

Mile 12 caters to every buyer. A significant number of our butchers are certified halal operators, slaughtering and handling meat according to Islamic law, with clear labelling and separation. Non-halal options are equally available. Whether you are buying for a Muslim household, a restaurant with mixed clientele, or a caterer serving all traditions, you will find what you need.

Our traders source from livestock markets in Kano, Kaduna, and Ogun states, work with certified abattoirs in Lagos, and some operate their own slaughter facilities on market grounds. The result is a supply chain that is short, transparent, and built on decades of trusted relationships.
