R. S. & L. Bows is a company that exists in both the 2D Universe and the 3D Universe of the Grand Theft Auto series, appearing as a meat processing company in Grand Theft Auto 2 and a family-owned butchers business in Grand Theft Auto: Vice City.
Description[]
2D Universe[]
The company owns a meat processing plant in the neighborhood of Lubyanka in Industrial District, Anywhere City in Grand Theft Auto 2. It is a primary location for one mission given by the Russian Mafia, "Hot Dog Homicide!". The player must gather pedestrians with a bus and bring them to the plant. They are turned to Hot Dogs and served at The Kovski Diner. Due to the absence of civilian buses in the PlayStation version of the game, a Karma Bus is used and instead of pedestrians, the player gathers members of the Hare Krishna.
3D Universe[]
In Grand Theft Auto: Vice City, Mules, Yankees, Boxvilles and Rumpos bearing the company's name and logo can be seen driving around Vice City although they are more common in the mainland than the beach. R.S & L. Bows Mules are either dark blue, grey or maroon in color. If a R.S. & L. Bows Mule's back door is broken off, meat carcasses can be seen inside.

Trivia[]
- The company's name is a reference to the British phrase "not know one's arse from one's elbow", meaning a very stupid person.
- The company's slogan is another of Rockstar Games' sexual jokes, as "beat our meat" is a slang term for masturbation. This slogan is also used by Chihuahua Hotdogs in Grand Theft Auto IV, Grand Theft Auto V, and Grand Theft Auto Online.
