Brand Story: The Walkers story began over a century ago in 1898 in the Scottish Highlands, when twenty-one-year-old Joseph Walker fulfilled his dream of opening his own bakery with a £50 loan, aiming to create the world's finest shortbread. In his inaugural year, Joseph devoted every spare moment to perfecting his shortbread recipe, an effort that soon paid off. As his reputation spread and demand soared, Joseph expanded operations, relocating to a larger shop in Aberlour and investing in a horse-drawn cart for wider distribution.
By the 1930s, the business, much like Joseph's family, flourished. His sons, James and Joseph, joined, injecting fresh ideas. By 1936, they expanded the product line to include cakes, confectionery, and acquired their first delivery van. Despite trends towards cheaper substitutes like margarine, Joseph insisted on using butter, confident in customer appreciation for superior quality. This commitment endured after Joseph's passing in 1954, with his sons maintaining his original recipe.
The business continued to grow, relocating in 1975 to a custom-built factory accommodating new products like Chocolate Chip Shortbread and specialty cookies. By the 1970s, Joseph's grandchildren had expanded Walkers' reach to over 60 countries, earning three Queen's Awards for Export Achievement. Today, Walkers remains connected to its roots, testing new products in Aberlour's village shop, ensuring global customers enjoy products endorsed by local approval.
Walkers' reputation thrives on consistent quality and traditional recipes, making them a favorite among discerning customers and retailers worldwide. Their product range, from classic shortbreads to innovative flavors like almond and ginger, bears the iconic red tartan packaging adorned with Bonnie Prince Charlie and Flora MacDonald, symbolizing Scottish heritage and meticulous baking.
Product Offerings: Walkers' Traditional Scottish Oat Crackers are an ideal snack any time of day. Perfect with jam, crème fraiche, or alongside fine cheeses, these oat crackers are also delicious on their own.
Pure Ingredients: Made from whole grain oats and natural ingredients, Walker's oat crackers ensure a pure, slightly sweet crunch reminiscent of their famed shortbread.
Scottish Highland Roots: Echoing the quality of their shortbread, Walker's offers a selection of traditional oat crackers, including mini oat crackers and flavor-rich three seed variants.
Scottish Baking Excellence: From Shortbread Fingers to Scottie Dogs and Highland Oat Crackers, Walker's commitment to quality methods, delicious flavors, and traditional Scottish recipes shines through in every product.
Legacy of Quality: Since Joseph Walker's humble beginnings in 1898, the Walker family has upheld a tradition of excellence, using the finest ingredients and time-honored Scottish baking techniques to produce 'The world's classic pure butter shortbread'.
