Greggs

Ian Gregg purchased a business in Rutherglen known as Price’s in 1972. Then in 1989 purchased Flour Power, a small bakery in Edinburgh.  Shop growth continued at pace and the new bakery in Edinburgh opened in 1998. Volume outgrew the Rutherglen site and we moved to Clydesmill in 2007.  The site was built for 190 shops which they had outgrown by 2014.

To cope with shop expansion, supply proposal named  “Blue Print“, was developed, this fundamentally changed how every site operated and the number of lines produced.  Unfortunately, our Edinburgh site could not facilitate semi-automated processes, site closed in April 2017.  Extension to Clydesmill site in 2017 to facilitate additional freezer capacity, shop growth and Yum Yum line. Products made on site: Yum Yum, Belgian Buns, Apple Danish, Fruit Scone, Cheese Scone, Scotch Pies, Haggis Pies Producing a total of approx 1.25 million units per week. We also pick and transport to 288 shops in Scotland and bulk deliver to 14 in Northern Ireland.
