Bistre Farm Shop is a family operated business which employs over 20 staff.

It offers a full range of beef, lamb, pork and poultry in the form of traditional and more contemporary cuts, all prepared by trained and experienced staff.

The Jones family have been at Bistre Farm since the early 1900’s. In 1974, Dennis Jones and his wife Ena started to sell home produced lamb and that’s where it all started.

Sons Nicholas and Philip were involved with the business right from the beginning, whilst still in education.

In 1980, after finishing school they returned home to work, leading to the business expanding and the opening of a shop in Buckley.

In 1993, with business booming and the shop becoming even more popular, it was decided to relocate to the main shopping centre in the town.

Now, after being at number 10 Buckley Shopping Centre for 28 years, the business is ready for a new chapter at number 11 and 12, where it will be able to offer an even wider range of products in a larger premises.
