Company Overview
At Company Bakery, we specialise in crafting exceptional sourdough using traditional techniques and the highest quality, locally sourced ingredients. From our bakery in Musselburgh, we deliver freshly baked bread, pastries and cakes daily to over 200 businesses and 300 homes across Edinburgh, Lothian, Glasgow, Perthshire and the Borders.
We are a team of honest, committed individuals who believe in baking with purpose—combining craftsmanship, sustainability, and community. Our work is driven by values: respect for ingredients, care for the planet, and a shared pursuit of excellence.
Our sustainability commitments are central to everything we do. We work exclusively with local suppliers, operate a fully electric fleet, and partner with organisations like ZeroWaste Scotland as part of our journey towards net zero. Alongside our environmental goals, we also invest in our people—offering private healthcare, a comprehensive wellbeing package, career development support, and even a birthday celebration day off (with cake, of course).
