A Glasgow-based pizza manufacturer is set to create 17 new jobs as part of a significant expansion of its operations.

Dough It Yourself, which produces fresh pizza kits and supplies major retailers, has announced the recruitment drive following a period of strong growth. The company, founded in 2017, has seen demand for its products soar, prompting investment in new equipment and increased production capacity.

The expansion will see Dough It Yourself increase its workforce by nearly 50%, with positions available in production, packaging, and logistics. The company’s products are now stocked in several major supermarket chains, and it has plans to further extend its reach in the coming months.

Anne Marie Cairney, co-founder at Victor Pizza, said: “We’ve come a long way from frying pizzas in the back of a Glasgow bakery – now, we’re sending out hundreds of pallets every month to customers all over the UK.

“We’ve built something more than a factory – it’s a family – and that’s the difference people feel when they work with us.

“This new chapter in Coatbridge gives us space to grow, while staying grounded in the values we started with.”

The move has been welcomed by local business leaders, who highlighted the positive impact on employment and the wider Glasgow economy.
