    Leo's meat store - problems

    So it seems that Leo's is going through some problems again.
    Their website is down. I called and they don't want to take my order.

    So, any recommendations for another meat shop?
    I usually buy pork fillet, mince beef, salmon fillet and cedar cheese from them.

    Thanks,

    I order cheese, Salmon and minced beef from BGF. Think they're owned by the same company as Leo's.

    The rest of the meat , chicken, ribs, beef order from Lung Wah the wholesaler near the Belcher's. Free delivery over $1000 - neighbor and I order together.

    I've used MM Fresh Foods a bit. Similar to Southstream. Their Tasmanian vege boxes are good.

    Thanks
    How do you order from Lung Wah? Just walk into the shop? Or do you have to phone and get a price list?

    Ordered from BFG today and was surprised at the price, for which I assume is the same product I was ordering from Leo's as its the same overall company. Could be different but descriptions seem the same and I doubt they would have 2 different salmon suppliers. Service also much better so far.
    I feel really ripped of by Leo's all these years. On BFG the mince beef is $22 cheaper /kg, salmon $23, cedar cheese $38 and pork fillet $43 / kg!
    Why didn't someone tell me sooner

    The products are the same. Have ordered from both too.

    Lung Wah, I email them. Can share the price list with you. They Whatsapp you when the order is packed with the invoice total, so you can pay on delivery.

    And I expect that there will be more trouble / pricing changes with Leo's and BGF in the next year or two.

    The company’s chairman Zhang, 61, is also chairman of Citic Pacific China Holdings, and vice president of Citic Ltd.
