Bayne's The Family Bakers opens 70th new shop in Perth
They also plan to open three to four new shops annually over the next decade.
Bayne’s The Family Bakers has opened its 70th shop at Perth’s Inveralmond Retail Park.
This milestone coincides with the Scottish bakery’s 70th anniversary and ongoing expansion.
“Looking ahead, we plan to open three to four new shops annually over the next decade whilst continuing to invest in product innovation and digital transformation to meet evolving customer needs,” said John Bayne, joint managing director at Bayne’s.
Bayne’s The Family Bakers, established in 1954, is a third-generation family-owned bakery rooted in Lochore, Fife.
It then expanded beyond Fife in 1975 to Perthshire with a shop in Kinross, then increased its presence throughout Scotland.
In the late 1990s to early 2000s, Bayne’s saw further growth into Perth, Dundee, and Monifieth, followed by the opening of its first retail park ‘food to go’ shop in Stirling in 2006.
Bayne’s entered the Edinburgh market in 2012 and expanded into Glasgow in 2018.
In 2021, the company launched its first drive-thru in Hillington. Most recently, in 2023, Bayne’s completed a freezer extension at its bakery.
