Walkers Shortbread was founded by Joseph Walker in 1898, when he opened his village bakery, and today his grandchildren and great-grandchildren carry forward the traditional of baking the finest shortbreads, biscuits, cakes and oatcakes using his original recipes. Over the years,the Walker family has added new products to their range, always holding dear to the values of quality and natural goodness. In fact, the founder’s personal guarantee is still carried on every pack, to confirm that Walkers products are made with only the finest ingredients obtainable.

The company, McKenzie Biscuits,a small family owned independent, was established in the rural village of Cuminestown in Aberdeenshire in the North East of Scotland in 1981. The parent company, McKenzie Bakers, was founded in nearby Turriff in 1951 by Alexander McKenzie, the father of the present owner, Gerry McKenzie. This home bakery continues to flourish. The biscuit bakery initially produced a small range of Sweet Cookie type biscuit, but this range has been greatly increased over the years and now also includes a range of Savoury Biscuits, Shortbread and Oatcakes.
