Border Biscuits

Border Biscuits are on a mission to change the way the cookie crumbles. Baking in Lanarkshire, Scotland’s favourite premium biscuit brand uses 10% of profits to invest back into the local community.

Their fund, Border Community Support, gives to Lanarkshire causes, including local school projects, theatre groups and even tourism in Lanark – the last of which they've promised to deliver services for until August 2029. 

As the UK’s most well-known out-of-home individually wrapped biscuit brand, they've been able to donate quite a bit of dough – reaching £1million in donations by February 2021. Such dedication saw them win the Commitment to the Community award, alongside the Scottish Family Business of the Year (Large) 2024 at the Herald Scottish Family Business Awards.

With a passion for their people, profits from biscuits also fund the Border Employee Volunteer Program which helps employees lend their skills in and around the local community and pick up a few new ones too. They're on a journey to do right by the environment, too, and in 2019 they removed 90% of plastic from their core range. All this is why you'll find them as a staple in our hamper and gift range.

So if you’re looking to turn your tea break into change, Border is the place to start. They say that where there’s tea, there’s hope. And with a Border Biscuit on the side, you can be sure of it.
