About Us
We pride ourselves in our quality service and quality products. Unfortuntately any
good business man will claim this... we prefer you to judge our products and our staff.
We have employed mystery shoppers to keep us on our toes! We are constantly trying to
improve so we value your opinion and suggestions!
With our continued investment in Lurgan, we are promoting better parking facilities in Lurgan to include additional spaces
and an improvement in town centre redevelopment brought on by recent Public Realm works.
In the Spring 2010 John Dowey was accepted as a board member of Lurgan Forward
and Simon Dowey involved in the steering group for Lurgan Chamber of Trade and Commerce.
Below is a "flavour" of what we are about:
|
| Theres always something going on at Doweys! We sometimes have live music inside or outside our shop. Local bands
treat our customers to ageless music and make a grab for the sausages! |
 |
| We are setting standards! John R. Dowey and Son helped the consultation on Butcher Shop Licensing and were the first in
Northern Ireland to been awarded the standard. This scheme has now been superseeded by HACCP. |
 |
Our trained butchers expertly slice and trim our beef. We also prepare our own house specialities! |

 |
