Scotgrain work in partnership with Scotland’s growers and grain customers to supply quality grains to market. As one of the largest grain buyers in Scotland, Scotgrain provides a route to market for all combinable crops including Malting Barley, Oats, Wheat, Rye and Oilseed Rape. We offer a range of marketing options to Scotland’s growers, including long term contracts and buyback agreements, helping to reduce the risk of growth and harvest conditions to Scotland’s arable farmers.
Scotgrain’s parent company, Bairds Malt, provides a direct market for the best Scottish Malting Barley supporting the success of Scotland’s distilling and brewing markets. Bairds Malt was founded nearly two centuries ago, based on the simple idea that to produce the best beer or whisky you have to control its key ingredient – malt. Bairds has approx. 280kt malting capacity with three plants in Scotland and one in England, with plans to add an additional 57,000mt of annual capacity by early 2027. Bairds is the largest UK maltster, having been acquired by Malteries Soufflet in 2023. The acquisition has brought investment, expansion and opportunity to the business, making it an exciting time for someone to join.
