Paul Cook Distribution

About Us

In 1998 we established a 24hr emergency and contract courier service for distribution and manufacturing companies, which encompasses both food and pharmaceutical industries.  With a fleet of chilled, frozen, and ambient transit style vans, Paul Cook Temperature Controlled Distribution specializes in both regular deliveries and emergency problem-solving distribution for manufacturing plants, RDC's, and the end-user.  Based 5 minutes from Junction 17 of the M5 in Bristol, we are able to offer both the UK and European distribution solutions at short notice.

Group Overview

Paul initially started out as a caterer in Bristol in 1970 and with his unique approach to business and ability to react to the economic environment has developed a diverse portfolio driven by customer service.  Today the Paul Cook Group incorporates Paul Cook Distribution and the following two brands:

In 1996 Paul established St. Swithins Ostrich Meat to meet the rapidly growing demand for quality Ostrich Meat.  Osgrow was formed in 1999 with the acquisition of the assets and clients from Osgrow Ltd by St. Swithins Ostrich Meat, both of which specialized in Ostrich products. Since then Osgrow 's range has rapidly expanded to over 22 different meat categories whilst still supplying one of the largest selections of Ostrich Products in the country. In February 2003 we increased our product list to include Leather Goods, Feathers & Eggs.

Our range comprises only of meats that have never been treated with hormones and are either naturally reared, or harvested under very strict conditions from around the world. All our exotic meats are produced within strict European and International welfare guidelines.

All the game is reared in its natural environment with minimal human contact. This ensures the animal's well-being and of course, a high standard of health is maintained. The selection of the meat takes place at night by trained hunters. The animals are always shot in the head to ensure direct bleeding takes place, this and minimal stress are vital to the production of the high-quality product sourced for the table. Processing of the carcass follows strictly the European Hygiene Regulations which include the precise management of working and storage temperatures throughout, thus eliminating the risk of bacterial contamination.

Those meats that are farmed, including Ostrich, Crocodile, Snails, and Locusts come only from establishments that follow strictly the European hygiene and welfare guidelines.

Osgrow shows how well the partnership between conservation and exotic meat production works, ensuring the successful continuation and survival of many species that would easily be starved out of existence by other animals taking over if their numbers were not controlled under strict regulation.

2001 saw the relocation of our cutting plant to a purpose-built facility with a larger capacity. It is from here that all Osgrow products are packed and distributed nationally.
