Overview
- Alexander Taylor Bakery, founded in 1820 in Strathaven, is now listed for sale with Business Partnership.
- Barry and Claire Taylor have run the shop for 28 years as sixth-generation custodians and are stepping back.
- Agent Cameron Young is inviting enquiries, describing the bakery as a community cornerstone with strong foundations for growth.
- Family history includes Victorian-era expansion and catering for 1920s day-trippers, reflecting two centuries of evolution.
- The owners hope a buyer preserves the legacy while developing the business further, as they plan more time for painting and cycling.
