Doherty's Meats

James Doherty (Meats) Ltd. is one of Ireland's oldest meat processors and a leading producer of chilled and frozen meat products, for retail customers in the UK and Republic of Ireland.

Doherty's, based in Derry, is a family-owned and managed business which has been supplying quality meats to customers, initially in the North West of Ireland, since 1830. The company has grown steadily and supplies major UK retailers including Asda, Tesco and Ocado. It also supplies Ireland's Musgrave Group.

The company, which is BRC accredited and now employs 45 people at its modern and HACCP approved processing plant, produces sausages, minced beef products, bacon, ham and black and white puddings. They also produce Gluten Free Pork Sausages, BeefBurgers and Beef Meatballs.

Doherty's has also expanded its thriving van sales business supplying Northern Ireland and the border counties in the Republic of Ireland.

In January 2018, Doherty's launched a 580g meatloaf in an oven-ready tray. The company, which operates from a modern plant near Derry city centre, has also won major UK and Irish free-from awards for its gluten-free Irish pork sausages.
