Who is the Sausage Man?
Simon Ellery, a New Zealander-turned-Berliner, is the man behind
The Sausage Man Never Sleeps. Starting with his apprenticeship
at a butchery in Ashburton at age 15, Simon built his career in
export meat production and food safety before catching the
travel bug. After landing in the UK, Simon rediscovered his
passion for butchery while working at Lidgate's of Holland Park.
A chance meeting brought Simon to Berlin where he worked at
Bünger Fleischerei for two years before becoming a
German-certified Fleischmeister. Using a second-hand meat
grinder he found at the flea market in Mauerpark, Simon began
making fresh sausages for friends using decidedly
non-traditional flavours. In April 2014, he started selling
these wares, and the official journey of The Sausage Man,
Simon's muse and his charming mascot, began.
In 2021, The Sausage Man Never Sleeps became the official sponsor
of TKCC. Not only helping out with the cost of our tailored sports
kit, Simon himself flew into Amsterdam from Berlin to join TKCC’s
first ever cricket tour in the Netherlands. The Knockers are proud
to have The Sausage Man’s logo adorn our bright pink shirts, and
look forward to many more delicious initiatives in the future!
