THE GREEN LOOP
Sustainability runs through every part of how we operate — from sourcing to delivery to staff training.
Baking for the next
generation of Scots.
ELECTRIC DELIVERIES
transformative.
A fully electric fleet — quietly
We have transitioned to electric vehicles for all our deliveries. This shift significantly reduces our carbon emissions while keeping our service efficient. We continue to explore advances in electric vehicle technology and optimise our delivery routes to make every charge count.
LOCAL SOURCING
Supporting local businesses,
reducing our carbon footprint.
We source all our ingredients from within Scotland — prioritising local goods to reduce transportation emissions and contribute to the sustainability of Scottish agriculture and food production.
We work closely with our suppliers to maintain ethical and environmentally friendly farming practices, reinforcing our commitment to sustainability at every stage of our supply chain.
MIDLOTHIAN BUSINESS GREEN PLEDGE
Our five commitments.
01
Switch to a 100% renewable energy supplier at contract renewal or earlier.
02
Encourage employees to use active transport — walking and cycling to work — to lower transport-related emissions.
03
Promote flexible work arrangements, including work-from-home where feasible.
04
Transition to sustainable products by using paper instead of plastic wherever possible.
05
Implement comprehensive recycling and reuse programmes to minimise landfill contributions.
We continuously review our progress and explore new strategies to improve our environmental performance — including renewable energy solutions such as solar panels and energy-efficient appliances.
TRAINING
Sustainability, built into
daily practice.
Our employees receive training in sustainable business practices to ensure that environmental consciousness is embedded in our daily operations. Staff are educated on:
​
-
Proper recycling and waste management techniques.
-
Daily actions to minimise energy and water use.
-
Best practices for maintaining an eco-friendly workplace.
We also provide opportunities to participate in sustainability workshops and collaborate with environmental organisations, staying informed about best practices and new developments.
