Not everyone can say they had a first job like Abou Sow. At 11 years old, he began working at his uncle’s slaughterhouse in Jamaica, Queens. It was there he learned how to slaughter animals according to halal standards.
The 26 year old has now opened up his own butcher shop called Prince Abou’s Butchery. But Prince Abou’s Butchery wasn’t always a brick and mortar shop. Sow began the business in a classically millennial way: selling his products through Instagram. Beginning In January 2020, people would order fresh meat via Instagram DM and Sow would deliver. Then, in August 2021, he signed a lease and one year later opened his own space.
Prince Abou’s Butchery is a cut above the rest:
