Matty Waller, elder son of founder Dave Waller, paid tribute to the quality of Wallers' suppliers.
He said: "We rely on our local suppliers. Many have traded with us for many years, a tradition we aim to maintain, and we prepare their produce professionally on our premises, to deliver consistent quality, choice and value to our customers.
"Our Large White Landrace Cross Pork was supplied by Jamie Ward, from Bromsberrow, near Ledbury."
