A Scottish crisp and snack brand is set to go its own way after the completion of a share buy-out.
Mackie’s at Taypack, a joint venture between the Taylor family and ice cream producer Mackie’s of Scotland was launched in 2009, to create crisps under the Mackie’s of Scotland brand.
The families pooled resources to invest and build an independent business, launching a range of Mackie’s potato crisps, from a base near the Taylor’s family farm in Errol, Perthshire. It now produces more than two million bags each month.
