Scotland's Top Independent Food Service For 30 Years.

McLays Foods was formed as a specialised butchers to the catering industry back in 1987. Although in that respect we only celebrated our 25th anniversary back in 2012, our family history in the meat trade goes back to the 1930's....so you could say we know what we are talking about! Since then we have expanded our range to become a complete chilled food service.
