Czech Republic
World Champion Young Butcher

Monika Remes (YB)

Monika is making history as the first and only butcher to represent the Czech Republic. Competing solo in the World Champion Young Butcher competition, Monika’s journey into the butchery world is nothing short of inspiring.

Originally from the Czech Republic, she spent five transformative years in New Zealand, where her passion for butchery truly took root. What began as a job as a boner in a slaughterhouse evolved into a full-fledged career, culminating in her qualification as a butcher in 2024. When the COVID-19 pandemic closed New Zealand’s borders, Monika seized the opportunity to hone her skills, demonstrating the resilience and dedication that now drive her toward the global stage.

We can’t wait to see what Monika brings to the World Champion Young Butcher Competition, and we’re cheering her on every step of the way!
