Built by the trade, for the trade. Exclusively for verified wholesale businesses – not open to the public.

Your B2B wholesale food trading platform

Meatex helps trade customers buy, sell and move wholesale food efficiently across meat, poultry, seafood and frozen categories.

From surplus and short-dated stock to factory seconds, clearance lines and contract production, Meatex brings together real buyers and real sellers in one professional, trade-only environment.

Suppliers can list products for free, deal directly with buyers, and choose when (and if) to pay for promotion.
There are no fees and no commission.

What you can do on Meatex:

• Source bulk frozen and chilled products at sharp wholesale prices.
• List surplus and short dated stock to free up cash and space.
• Promote availability to trade buyers across the UK and EU.
• Access classifieds for plant, equipment and business sales.
• Advertise vacancies on our specialist food industry jobs board.
