Welcome to The Biltong Merchant!
As the name suggests, we are purveyors of fine biltong rather than a producer: a kind of marketplace, if you like. We want to be THE place you come to to buy biltong online and maybe find a biltong recipe or two.
There are some outstanding biltong makers in the UK and as fans of the high protein, low carb, gluten-free snack, we have tried many of them in our search for the perfect bite.
So, we got to thinking - if there are so many biltong recipes from numerous suppliers, how can we help others to find their perfect biltong taste?...
Imagine - it’s like walking into the vintage section at your local wine merchant, or a premium fragrance boutique: you want guidance about the notes and flavours, the story behind the product, its provenance and its manufacture. It’s also important to many of us to understand the ethics behind the brands and the ethos of the businesses we’re buying from.
There is a huge variety of biltong recipes. Our selection will include suppliers from across the UK, who all have their own distinct flavours, aromas and textures. The one thing they do have in common is a commitment to prime quality meat and the highest animal husbandry standards. We’ve taken all those questions and used our research to start a curated selection of premium biltong products for you, provided by suppliers who share our principles and uphold our standards in their own businesses: a one-stop-shop, if you will, of all that we love and think is best in the ever-growing UK biltong industry. We are a new venture, but already have two prestigious biltong producers on board, Simply African Food and The Original Biltong Company, who are as keen as we are to spread the biltong word.
So, why buy from us? We work closely with our suppliers to promote their biltong products and their ethics. This means we can negotiate a discount, which we can pass directly on to you, our customers. We can bring you the same premium biltong products at a 10% discount: every order, every time. Just sign up and create an account - easy!
So come on in and check us out. Be the first to hear about our progress as we grow and share our love of all things biltong!
