Highland Fayre

What Highland Fayre does

Highland Fayre Ltd is a UK-based, specialist luxury food and drink hamper company incorporated in Scotland and headquartered at Unit 2, Ruthvenfield Road, Perth. Founded in 1985, originally starting with wild smoked salmon, the company has grown into a self-described 'Scotland's No. 1 specialist hamper company' offering over 200 curated hamper combinations hand-packed at its Scottish facility. The product portfolio spans Cheese & Wine, Chocolate, Christmas, Food, Luxury, Scottish, Free From (gluten-free, vegan, low-sugar, diabetic), Sustainable, Personalised (including engraved wooden boxes), Corporate, Occasion (Anniversary, Birthday, Valentine's, Mother's Day, Father's Day, Wedding, Thank You, New Home) and recipient-specific (Her, Him, Dad, Mum, Family) collections, with price points ranging from £5 (charity / plant-a-tree items) up to £910 (Indulgent Banquet Hamper).

The underlying technology stack is built on a Shopify-powered e-commerce storefront (highlandfayre.co.uk) with integrated checkout, delivery scheduling, and inventory management. Two distinctive proprietary capabilities are described: a multi-address delivery system that allows customers to send multiple gifts to different recipients within a single order (used heavily for corporate gifting campaigns), and a bespoke hamper customisation service enabling buyers to compose food and drink selections and add personalised messages or corporate branding. The company also holds Carbon Neutral certification covering both corporate operations and delivery logistics, and uses sustainable packaging (recycled paper, bamboo, biodegradable materials, reusable containers).

The business model operates across two principal revenue streams, both unit-priced one-time purchases: a direct-to-consumer channel serving individual gift buyers via the Shopify site with standard and next-day UK-wide delivery (free over £50 on UK mainland), and a Corporate/B2B channel handled by a dedicated sales team reachable via a published phone line and 'Request a Quote' workflow, offering bespoke branded hampers, volume discounts and personalised corporate gifts for enterprise clients. Publicly disclosed enterprise customers include SSE, BP, Coca-Cola, LG, UBS and Glenmorangie. The catalogue is broad and the category is highly seasonal (Christmas is named as the primary revenue driver, with Easter, Valentine's and Mother's Day also prominent), but the absolute scale is small: headcount is described only as a 'small business' with no specific count, no external funding is disclosed, ownership is founder-led, and there are no subsidiaries, M&A activity or strategic investments recorded in the data.
