Island Larder Ltd Hi Aye! πŸ‘‹
Shetland Bakery with an accent! Here for the sweet magic and island life πŸ‘©β€πŸ³ We make everything onsite through our viewing kitchen and Cook School.

We are home of Shetlands Finest Products and supporters in small batch producers from Shetland, Scotland and further afield - including our very own Ice Cream, Shetland Fudge, Scottish Tablet and world famous Puffin Poo! Our refill station hosts over 120 items and we only sell our local milk through our milk dispenser. We only ever use this milk in our cafΓ© and when we make our Luxury Shetland Ice-Cream. We are proud to be Shetlands only cafΓ© operating in this way - making sure we lower our carbon footprint and use of plastic. We are advocates in consuming responsibly with the highest quality possible, this is why we only ever use local meat in our street-food cafΓ© and red tractor assured chicken and never any Palm Oil - sustainable or not.

Last week was wild but this week is going to be utterly NUTS! We are heading to London to attend the final of the The Lloyds British Business Excellence Awards as we have been named a finalist for Dext Small Business of the Year. And no, this has definitely not sunk in!!! But it is an incredible achievement, that I know. And I want to attend with all other finalists who all deserve to be celebrated.

I cant wait to hear all the stories, journeys and paths of all the amazing people in the room. It’s going to be a fun night! πŸ₯‚ flying the flag for Shetland πŸ’™

THEN we head to Glasgow and will be visiting a few Scotmid Coop stores to see in real life our Pony and Puffin Poo on the shelves….. Blows my mind!!!

Opportunities- I grab them all for dear life!

Marshmallows made in Shetland, when I post videos of us making, chopping or drizzling these people always get intrigued and want to try it for themselves. They are amazing, handmade marshmallow is nothing like shop bought mallow! Best enjoyed fresh!! 🀍

Waaaait a meenit!!!
Standing looking at not one, but TWO pallets of our hero products, Puffin Poo and Shetland Pony Poo, wrapped, labelled and ready to ship for our Scotmid Coop order was honestly a peerie bit mental.

I don't think I can fully explain what it fels like.

To some, it might just be two pallets. To me it's a year of hard work, growth, change, courage and a few sleepless nights…

But what really made today so special was knowing what it took to get those pallets there.
The storage, the transport, the carriage, the ingredients, the staffing rotas, training new staff, the production planning and all the organising that went into making it happen.

All being made while we were off island.

The sleepless nights were REAL. πŸ˜…

Our team at Island Larder pulled off what can only be described as the best teamwork we have ever seen. They faced challenges and hurdles, supported each other and got the job done.

And standing there looking at those pallets, I felt so many things all at once.

Proud mostly.

To the island larder team πŸ’™ To us πŸ’™

See you soon Scotmid!

πŸ‘‹ a long one here but with all the calls, emails and messages about us being closed has shown us that the support from you is incredible.

So we’ve been closed for the past week and a half. And not told you why, because we are a small team and everyone is dealing with something.

Life has thrown a few things our way recently, completely out of our control and with 4 members of staff off, we’ve simply not had enough hands to open. Thankfully, everyone is doing well and things are getting better. 🫢

As a small, local business a week of lost trade has a big impact, especially at a time when we’re working hard to grow Puffin Poo and Shetland Pony Poo across Scotland with Scotmid!

So, if you’re passing or able to make a trip to the street we’d really appreciate a peerie bit of Shetland support and kindness to our team to help us get back on our feet. Pop in for a coffee, a cookie or a bag (or two πŸ˜‰) of fudge.

It all makes a difference to a peerie business like ours and we’re so grateful to have you behind us.

Thank you Shetland. You’re the best πŸ’™

The best part about building a business?
Watching your people grow with it. πŸ’™

We’ve had some lovely achievements at Island Larder recently and these are the things I really want to celebrate.

πŸ‘ Two of our Puffin Poo crew have completed their Level 2 Food Safety in Manufacturing qualification. A brilliant achievement and another step in developing the knowledge and skills that keep our standards high.

πŸ™Œ We’ve also recently graduated our Retail Team Leader after a really successful summer.

Investing in leadership was a big step for us but it’s been one of the changes that’s made a real difference, like a MASSIVE difference. Giving the right people the trust, support and opportunity to step up has worked so well and it’s been fantastic to see.

Earlier this year, I took part in a leadership development course that helped me build my own confidence in how I lead. Now, I am even more confident in how to grow with my team.

It’s easy to measure a business by sales, growth and what you can see from the outside. But for me, success is just as much about what’s happening within it.

I’m learning that building a stronger business starts with being willing to grow as a leader myself and then creating the environment for others to do the same.

I’m incredibly proud of our team and what they continue to achieve. The more we invest in our people, the stronger we become as a business.

A huge well done to everyone involved. This is what growth looks like to me. πŸ’™
