We use express next day shipping on all our deliveries and our carefully crafted temperature controlled boxes keep your goods chilled and fresh throughout. This means after our master butchers cut and package your order, all meats are kept at ~2°C until they are opened at your doorstep. Moreover, all of our packaging is 100% eco-friendly and kerbside recyclable, including all refridgerants used.

Animal welfare is often a neglected part of the muslim consumers’ concerns when purchasing meat as most of the focus is around the method of slaughter. Whilst this is extremely important, we ask the question: can meat be truly halal, tayyib and wholesome if it endured terrible living conditions. Surely the enitre life and living conditions of the animal is just as important as the minutes leading up to slaughter? Hence at Saffron Alley, we’re all about sourcing animals that are able to do what they were born to, be free and roam.

Our fresh free-range lamb is sourced from Ireland and England where they have acres to freely roam around pastures. They are purely grass-fed and grow as nature intended without any use of growth promoting hormones. The lambs are unstunned and hand-slaughtered by a muslim. This process is certified by the HFA (Halal Food Authority).

We import the finest artisanal deli products from across the globe made with real meats, no fillers! All products are Halal certified by official Islamic authorities from each country of origin. All beef products are from unstunned cattle hand slaughtered by a muslim. All poultry products are from reversibly stunned and hand slaughtered birds.
