Paisley Pie Co and Scott McGinlay Catering were built the same way many great businesses start — with hard work, long hours, and a simple idea to do things properly.
Scott McGinlay grew up around food and local business, learning early on that quality, consistency, and looking after people always come first. From the early days working in family butchery and deli counters in Paisley, the goal was never just to sell food — it was to build something the local community could be proud of.
What started as small-scale catering and local food production quickly grew through word of mouth. Weddings, funerals, corporate events, football hospitality, and community events followed, and Scott McGinlay Catering became known for reliable service, generous portions, and honest food done well.
Paisley Pie Co came from that same mindset — taking a traditional favourite and doing it better. Using quality ingredients, proper recipes, and a bit of creativity, the pies quickly gained a following. From classic Scotch pies to viral creations like the Lasagne Pie and Paisley Bake, the brand grew rapidly through social media and customer support.
Today, Paisley Pie Co produces thousands of pies every week, supplying retail shops, venues, events, and wholesale customers while still serving the local community from its Paisley home. Despite the growth, the focus remains the same — quality food, consistency, and keeping things real.
We are proud to employ local people, support local suppliers, and give back to the community that supported us from day one. Awards, recognition, and viral moments are appreciated — but the real success is seeing customers come back again and again.
This is only the beginning. Our vision is to take Paisley Pie Co across the UK while keeping the same standards and personality that made people fall in love with it in the first place.
From Paisley to wherever comes next — thank you for being part of the journey.
