What grassfed.ie is

A marketplace, not a single brand. We bring together independent Irish butchers who source from grass-fed Irish herds — most of which qualify for the EU's "Irish Grass Fed Beef" Protected Geographical Indication (granted 2023). You buy from grassfed.ie. The butcher you choose cuts, packs, and ships directly to your door.

For customers

Real Irish butchers, real grass-fed beef

Subscription or one-off · Nationwide delivery

Choose your butcher, or let us rotate you through the network. Every box is traceable to a specific farm and a specific butcher — no anonymous supply chain. Most cuts qualify for the EU PGI on Irish grass-fed beef.

For butchers

National reach without national logistics

Founding-partner terms · Lower commission for early signers

Keep your shop, your existing customers, your local relationships. Add a national digital storefront and recurring-revenue subscription customers without building your own ecommerce stack.

Why now

The PGI status changes the brand calculus

EU-recognised since November 2023

Irish grass-fed beef now sits in the same legal-protection category as Champagne and Parma ham. Most independent Irish butchers are eligible to label their product as PGI but few have built the digital reach to monetise it.

Why grass-fed matters

How it works

A simple two-sided marketplace. Customers buy through grassfed.ie. Partner butchers fulfil from their own premises. Quality is guaranteed by the butchers we admit, not by us cutting it ourselves.

1

You order

Pick a subscription box (rotating between butchers) or buy direct from a specific partner butcher. Pay through grassfed.ie checkout — Stripe, Apple Pay, Revolut.

2

Your butcher cuts and packs

The partner butcher cuts your order from their own grass-fed Irish stock, packs it in our branded insulated packaging, and dispatches direct from their shop.

3

Next-day delivery, frozen-fresh

DPD Cool Chain or An Post Express Cool delivers next-business-day across Ireland. Cold-chain rated 24+ hours so the box keeps even if you're out.

Be one of the first to order

We launch with founding-partner butchers in 2026. Join the customer waitlist — we'll let you know when ordering opens, and offer founding customers an early-bird discount on their first box.

No spam. We email when ordering opens, and a few times a year about the network.

Are you an Irish butcher?

We're recruiting 4–6 founding-partner butchers across Ireland. Lower commission for the first year, featured-placement rotation, branded packaging, and a national digital storefront — without you building a single line of code or running paid ads.
