Hertel Meats Ltd. is a family-owned and operated company proudly serving Vancouver Island and the Lower Mainland since 1963. Based in Port Alberni and federally inspected, we specialize in top-quality fresh pork, traditionally smoked meats, and sausages made without gluten, lactose, or artificial enhancers. Alongside our signature Hertel Meats line, we produce D-Original Artisan Sausages, made in small batches from old-world recipes, and Bramblehills Healthy Choice Raw Dog Food, a holistic, preservative-free pet food based on the BARF diet. All three brands are crafted at our facility with a commitment to quality, tradition, and integrity—for families and their pets.
