The Customer

McGhee’s Family Bakers was founded in 1935 by Dugald McGhee at the original bakehouse in Oran Street, Maryhill in Glasgow. Still run as a family business more than 75 years later, McGhee’s cover the central belt of Scotland sending vans to Edinburgh, Dunfermline, Stirling and Perth on a daily basis, whilst establishing themselves as a supplier of the Glasgow favourite “Crispy Rolls”. The directors’ commitment meant a move to state-of-the-art premises at the M8 food park in June 2005, where they now operate out of possibly the most efficient bakery production unit in Britain, producing more than two million rolls each week. ACE Refrigeration are responsible for the service & maintenance of three McGhee’s Group sites, taking care of the crucial refrigeration required to ensure the integrity of all rolls, bread, cakes and savouries  as enjoyed all around the country every day.
