Yeah, as mentioned before with greengrocers, the same also applies to butchers over here, the supermarkets have squeezed almost all competition out. Years ago you would have had a local greengrocer and butcher in almost every local shopping parade as well as a selection in the town centres. These days town centres mainly comprise of all the national chains' dept stores, clothing, banks, building societies and jewellers along with the obligatory fast food outlets. The actual food retailers has by and large been pushed out of business in the centres and the vast majority of it is on retail sites around the outskirts of towns., YMMV
