Case Study: Fairfax Meadow Catering Butcher achieves enhanced food‑safety compliance, theft reduction and quality control with Milestone Systems

Fairfax Meadow, the premier UK catering butcher, gets more than just security with Milestone IP video surveillance

Fairfax Meadow, a BRC‑accredited UK catering butcher with multiple sites and a large logistics operation, was constrained by an aging analog CCTV system that produced poor-quality footage, required manual tape searches, and couldn’t withstand refrigerated, hose-down environments. Management needed a more robust, flexible solution to deter internal theft, improve traceability and enforce strict hygiene and quality practices across the factory and loading areas.

Matrix Net installed Milestone XProtect Enterprise with rugged Mobotix megapixel cameras and PoE cabling, creating a scalable IP video network that supports remote viewing, continuous recording and fast digital evidence searches. The upgrade delivered clearer images, easier audits, better operational and hygiene monitoring, reduced product loss and accidents, and stronger compliance with industry standards—benefits managers say will quickly justify the investment.
