Tsuen Wan Slaughterhouse, Commercial slaughterhouse in Kwai Tsing District, Hong Kong.
The Tsuen Wan Slaughterhouse is a modern meat processing facility in the Kwai Tsing District that handles livestock through separate sections designed for different animal types. Each section contains specialized equipment and machinery for efficient processing operations.
The facility was established in 1983 as part of Hong Kong's effort to modernize food processing and move industrial operations away from residential areas. This development reflected the city's push to improve food safety and processing standards across the region.
The facility plays a central role in Hong Kong's meat supply chain, providing fresh products to local markets, restaurants, and suppliers throughout the region.
Access to the facility is restricted and requires advance arrangements with management. It is best to visit during non-processing hours when operations are minimal and the area is more accessible to organized tours.
Local chefs arrive early in the morning to select premium meat cuts directly from the processing area for their restaurants. This practice of direct sourcing connects the facility closely to Hong Kong's food service community.
