Butcher monopoly in Kleve: Quartier takes over the market!

Butcher monopoly in Kleve: Quartier takes over the market!

Lothar and Daniel Quartier are in Kleve before a triumphal moment! The terhoeven butcher, one of the last of its kind in the city, closes its doors at the end of the year. This decision means that the butcher's shop on Marktstrasse, directly opposite the Galeria department store, will no longer be there for customers. From 2025, the quarters' butcher will be the only one of its kind in Kleve, with three locations: on the Hoffmannallee, on the Große Strasse and in cattle. A clear indication of the dramatic butcher who has grasped the region!

The end of an era

The closure of Terhoeven is another blow for local butcher culture. With only one butcher's shop that serves the market, the variety of offers is severely restricted. The quarters' butcher's shop is now becoming a monopolist in Kleve. Customers have to adapt to a new reality in which the selection of fresh meat products is drastically reduced. The terhoeven butcher shop was an important point of contact for many, and its departure will certainly leave traces.

The butcher is not only a local phenomenon, but reflects a larger trend that can be observed in many cities. The reasons are diverse: from changed consumption habits to economic challenges that many traditional companies put under pressure. The closure of Terhoeven is another example of the challenges with which the butcher industry is confronted.
