ABOUT US

Freedom Bakery is an artisan bakery with a wholesale trade across Glasgow and the West of Scotland. As a social enterprise, we have spent over a decade working with individuals in the prison system, providing training and employment opportunities. In 2026, this work will expand further through the launch of a dedicated charity. Our bakery specialises in sourdough and slow-fermented breads, crafted primarily for the high-end restaurant sector and independent retailers. With a strong focus on quality, craftsmanship, and purpose, we have built a reputation for exceptional products with a meaningful social impact that have been rewarded at the BBC Food and Farming Awards and Slow Food Scotland.

EXPERIENCE:
