Active

Executive summary

Mackie's Limited is a well-capitalised, family-owned premium ice cream manufacturer generating £24.8m in revenue with 11% year-on-year growth — significantly outpacing the broader UK ice cream market. Its integrated farm-based production model, sector-leading renewable energy infrastructure, and strong brand provenance provide durable competitive advantages within the premium segment, though cream price volatility and geographic concentration remain key risks. With net assets of £23.6m and conservative leverage, the business is financially well-positioned to continue its expansion from a Scottish stronghold into wider UK distribution.
