Mr. Mayer said they will specialize in European -style cuts, fresh meats, cured and smoked meats and cold cuts. Both men have left Ger- ' many because of stringent government and economic regulations: Canada is a natural place to relocate because Mr.' Mayer said he feels it is a land of great opportunity and resources. The London area was where Mr. Mayer originally wanted to locate, but he said he thought the comsetition would be too -tough there. So finally they chose the Wingham area because they feel it is central inplaces like Kincardine, Goderich and Owen Sound. In addition to retail selling of products, at the plant, they also hope to get into wholesale distribution to butchers and grocers throughout the area. Mr. Bloechinger was a cook in Germany and will offer a deli and catering service.
