Nelson and Sons Butchers
Nelson’s began opening shops in the mid-1880s, and was one of the first to develop the River Plate trade in Argentina. Nelson had started as a cattle salesman and in 1886 set up a freezing plant in Argentina. By 1900 they had over 400 branches, and by 1910 over 1,500.
In time, other multinational meat-trading companies were set up in competition to locally owner butchers, and other national chains. Union Cold Storage, owned by the Vestey family, acquired the subsidiaries of the Western United Investment Company in 1923. This included the British Argentine Meat Company, James Nelson & Sons, and Fletcher’s butchers’ shops. Post World War 1 the Vestey family were the richest in the UK, after the Royal family.
Vestey Brothers was the largest retailer of meat in the world by 1925, with a chain of 2,035 butchers’ shops in Britain. Most of their shops traded under the name “Dewhursts”.
