Company history
THE EARLY DAYS
In 1950, Romain Debaenst began to sell beef to some of his butcher colleagues. After joining the business in 1960, his son Wilfried Debaenst extended its range.
NEW PREMISES
Kurt Debaenst took over the reins in 2000, before relocating to Mouscron, where he built a cutting room directly linked to the slaughterhouse, which further improved the quality of meat sold in vacuum packs or quarters.
In 2002, a facility was also added to the cutting room for portioning ready-to-cook products. This means that our customers can rely on perfect products whether they are fresh, frozen, uncut or pre – packaged in handy – sized portions.
In 2012, in order to further enhance our quality guarantee, the company decided that it would no longer use subcontractors for slaughtering. DEBAENST SA has now built its own slaughterhouse, which meets the latest hygiene and animal welfare requirements. Since this facility opened in January 2012, it goes without saying that DEBAENST SA takes care of all its meat from pitchfork to knife and fork !
