Lomo Premium Meats hosts grand opening in Marana Nov. 13

Tucson Foodie is member-supported. Join the club.

Lomo Premium Meats will celebrate the grand opening of its newest butcher shop in Northern Marana from 11 a.m.-1 p.m. on Friday, Nov. 13. The shop sits at 11851 W. Marana Road, Suite 105 (Suite C), in Marana. While the business quietly opened on August 26, this event marks a larger celebration — the public can attend, sample popular cuts, and meet the Lomo team.

An official opening and remarks begin at 11:30 a.m. Lomo founder Dr. Samuel Garcia, a meat scientist, will attend along with representatives from the Town of Marana. Animal science students will also be on hand to talk with guests.

What to expect at the grand opening

Guests can explore the new shop and taste a selection of Lomo's popular cuts. Garcia and the students will answer questions about the science behind quality meat. They will also share advice on different cuts, preparation techniques, and how to choose quality meats.

Locally sourced beef and other meats

Lomo works with ranchers across Arizona and Sonora, Mexico. The company says its meats are natural and additive-free, with no added hormones or antibiotics. Its sourcing focuses on quality, freshness, and responsible practices.

Lomo's growing footprint

Marana joins Lomo's shops in Tucson and Green Valley. The Tucson shop sits at 1521 N. Wilmot Rd., where Lomo Grill opened next door on Feb. 6. The company also has an Oro Valley location in development.
