Member Information

John Apperley started his career as a butcher in 1988, joined by his brothers Paul and Colin a few years later, while their sister Anne joined them in 2012 when they developed a range of ready meals.


In 2020 the Apperley's brand was launched with the opening a deli and sandwich bar in Ballymoney town centre. After extensive renovations the new store was re-opened recently in November 2022 with a butchery, baker area, deli, ready meal section and sit in area. The store stocks a wide range of locally made products.

In May 2020, not long after the start of the first lockdown, Apperley’s opened their next store in Antrim. About a year later the shop was extended and now stocks a range of their own ready meals, fresh meat, pre-packaged meats, fresh vegetables, their homemade bakery products and a range of goods from local suppliers.

In 2021 Apperley’s took over an existing butcher’s shop in Ballykeel, Ballymena and in December 2022 their fourth store was opened in Limavady.

Apperley’s supply a selection of local shops and supermarkets with their range of pre pack meats and ready meals. The ready meals are made from scratch in the Ballymoney store using only the finest ingredients. They also supply some local hotels and restaurants.

Apperley’s bone their own beef in a recently acquired DAERA approved meat factory located just outside Coleraine. The beef is handpicked by John to ensure only the best gets to their customers. The beef is then matured for 28 days to ensure that it is tender and full of flavour.
