Tillman’s Meats and Country Store is primed to open its third location May 9.
It is planned at 10620 U.S. 1 N. in the Shoppes of Valley Ridge in Ponte Vedra Beach.
Tillman’s has stores at 10177 Old St Augustine Road in Jacksonville and at 4324 Raggedy Point Road in Fleming Island.
Tillman’s Meats offers standard beef offerings, including prime rib, filet mignon and rib-eye steaks, as well as cuts of elk, bison, kangaroo, ostrich, python, black bear, yak, venison, rabbit, veal, goat, lamb, alligator, goose, Cornish hens and duck.
“We at Tillman’s Meats search-out and source only the best quality meats that comply with our high standards. All of our meats bear the USDA seal of inspection and come from domestic farms, proudly sourced right here in the USA,” the company says on its website.
“As a family-run business, and proudly serving our customers for over 40 years, the masters at Tillman’s Meats hand-cut and trim each and every steak. We ensure that each steak, roast or any cut of meat that leaves our butcher’s block is consistent with our high quality standards. Our beef is aged to perfection, hand-cut and trimmed to ensure maximum flavor and tenderness.”
Proprietor Richard Gayadeen bought Tillman’s Jan. 17, 2019.
St. Johns County issued a permit Feb. 10 for build-out of a 1,365-square-foot-space at a cost of $100,000.
Jacksonville-based AEC Integrated LLC is the contractor.
Fred Pollitt of Price Real Estate Services represented Gayadeen in the leasing agreement with Ash Properties’ Director of Leasing Dave Gaglione.
