Walker’s Shortbread, the iconic Scottish biscuit brand, has been awarded a prestigious Royal Warrant by His Majesty King Charles III, authorising the supply of shortbread and oatcakes to the British royal household.
The family-run business, established in 1898 in Aberlour, Speyside, has maintained its founding traditions while expanding to nearly 100 global markets.
Previously honoured with four Queen’s Awards for Export Achievement, Walker’s continues to represent “Scotland at its finest”.
Nicky Walker, Managing Director at Walker’s Shortbread, said: “It is a privilege for Walker’s to be granted a Royal Warrant of Appointment from His Majesty King Charles III for the supply of shortbread and oatcakes to the Royal Household.
“As an independent, family run business, we are extremely proud to carry the Royal Warrant which is a great honour and we feel is a true mark of recognition for our service and commitment to baking ‘Scotland at its finest’ for over a century.
“It is particularly poignant to receive the appointment following the very sad passing of my uncle, Sir Jim Walker recently.
“My uncle, my father Joe and my aunt Marjorie were extremely proud when Walker’s was granted the Royal Warrant for the supply of shortbread and oatcakes to the late Queen Elizabeth II and I know how delighted they would have been by this Appointment from his Majesty King Charles III.
“This award is testament to their legacy.”
This royal endorsement celebrates Walker’s Shortbread’s unwavering quality and its significant place in both Scottish culinary heritage and royal tradition.
