Mackays Jam & Marmalade

Mackays is a renowned Scottish brand celebrated for its traditional approach to fruit preserves and marmalades. The company is famous for being one of the last remaining commercial marmalade producers in the Dundee area, which is historically significant as the birthplace of marmalade. They utilize traditional open copper pans and a slow-boiling method to ensure the authentic texture and flavor of the fruit is preserved, sourcing their bitter Seville oranges directly from Spain and local berries from the Angus region.

Founded as a family business, Mackays has maintained its commitment to authentic Scottish manufacturing. While many brands have moved production to larger industrial facilities, Mackays continues to produce its entire range at its facility in Arbroath, Scotland. The brand has successfully expanded its presence globally, exporting to over 80 countries, and remains a symbol of Scottish culinary heritage under the ownership of the Grant family.
