Poll: Where do you buy your mince?

Libby Reporter from Waikato Local

As mince prices rise, shoppers are hunting for bargains - and sometimes the farmer’s market beats the supermarket.

Soggy Bottom Holding owner and butcher Jono Walker sells at the Hamilton and Cambridge farmers’ markets every week.

At the time of writing his $24-a-kilo mince price beats two out of three major supermarkets.

The new addition close by the inland port on the outskirts of the city will augment the numerous multi-million dollar investments already there.
