About Us

L&J Meats

Welcome to L&J Meat Market, a family-owned and operated business with a rich history spanning over five decades. Established in 1969 by friends Gordon Jenema and Marv Lutke, the business took on a new chapter in 1970 when Gordon became the sole owner. For 53 years, L&J Meat Market has remained in the capable hands of Gordon's family, who have nurtured its growth and success.

Gordon, along with his wife Karen and son Tim, dedicated themselves to providing exceptional products and personalized service to their valued customers. Their passion and commitment laid the foundation for a thriving enterprise. When Gordon sadly passed away in 1996, the legacy of L&J Meat Market was carried forward by Tim and his wife Sandy, who took over the reins of the business from Karen.

With unwavering dedication, Tim and Sandy nurtured L&J Meat Market, ensuring its continued success and reputation for excellence. In 2019, a new generation stepped into leadership roles as Tim and Sandy's daughter, Heather Haverkamp, and her husband David took over the family business. The tradition of family involvement and hard work continues to this day, with every member pitching in and contributing their unique skills and talents.

David and Heather, proud parents to three sons and a daughter, are deeply committed to upholding the values that L&J Meat Market was built upon. They are passionate about sourcing locally and providing their community with the finest quality products they have come to trust and rely on over the years. Customer satisfaction remains their top priority, and they strive to exceed expectations by delivering exceptional quality and service.
