History

Established in 1830, Campbell's Bakery is Scotland's oldest independent family run craft bakery, however it is by no means stuck in its ways.

In addition to traditional Scottish favourites such as scotch pies, oatcakes, shortbread, Selkirk Bannock and Black Bun, Campbell's Bakery also provides a wide variety of breads and cakes inspired by different areas around the world.

When Donald Campbell opened his small bakery in the picturesque town of Callander in 1830 he probably never thought the bakery would still be going strong over 170 years later.

The bakery in Crieff was started in 1929 by the founder's great grandson Bob Campbell and his wife Cathy. The newlyweds worked hard selling everything from morning rolls to wedding cakes. Bob was the first person in the town to have a motorised vehicle which he used for a twice a day delivery service. In the morning he went round the houses and farms with morning rolls and bread and in the afternoon he delivered fresh tea bread and scones.

Bob and Cathy's son Jim joined his parents in the business in 1950. After Bob's death in 1971 Jim and his mum became business partners. In 1980 Jim's wife Alice joined the bakery and became Jim's business partner when Cathy died in 1981.

After training in Edinburgh and working in bakeries in Australia, Jim and Alice's son Iain joined the family business in 1993. As the sixth generation to run the family business, Iain works hard to maintain the high quality the bakery is known for while also introducing new products inspired by what he has seen and tasted around the world. All the breads, biscuits, cakes and pies are made with the highest quality ingredients and made in small batches by hand on the premises. Now with the addition of Iain's wife Ailsa and sisters Alison and Fiona, Iain and his mum have more help to continue the bakery's success.
