The owner of restaurant chain Tomahawk Steakhouse is mulling the purchase of his own meat wholesaler in moves to keep prices down.
Howard Eggleston first launched the popular steak restaurants with the inaugural site in Potto, North Yorkshire, five years ago, specialising in the supersize Tomahawk steaks, Himalayan salt dry-aged beef and Yorkshire wagyu.
Its popularity triggered more openings across the North East and beyond, with the firm now operating 17 sites around the UK under three brands – Rio Brazilian Steakhouse, Tomahawk Steakhouse and Pollo – including bases in Yarm, Newcastle, Jesmond, Ponteland, and its first in London.
