our story
40 Years in Business
Choper Butcher was inspired by the owner’s father who was known as ‘Ah Soon’ during the good old days back at Old Bugis Street Singapore. Ah Soon was well respected in the butchery trade during those days with his quality meats and offerings, coupled with his extremely friendly demeanour, a trait that was well-liked by his regulars. The offerings and reasonable price point that Ah Soon was known for, provided many memorable meals and frequent feasts sessions in the community.
“The Butcher Shop is the perfect place to experience cooking bliss. You will learn that we are far more than just a simple butcher shop.”
Our meat is 100% Aussie-grown and sourced from local farmers. It’s delivered to each of our locations daily, and prepared in-store – visit yourself and see the butchers working behind the scenes cutting and preparing the meat! These are the times where community spirits and loyalty were bonded by local businesses and their genuinity in serving their locals.
