For Edinburgh food, drink, whisky and gifting brands that sell Scottish provenance to customers across the UK and around the world.

[ ECOMMERCE IN EDINBURGH ]
Edinburgh brands trade on Scotland's name. Food and drink is one of the country's best-known exports, and Scotch whisky alone was worth over £5 billion in exports in 2025, according to the Scotch Whisky Association, which is based in the city. Around that sit gin distillers, craft brewers, chocolatiers, smokehouses, knitwear and gifting brands, many of which first meet customers through tourism and then sell online.
Selling from Scotland brings rules and logistics that English stores rarely face. Alcohol sold in Scotland is subject to minimum unit pricing of 65p per unit, and delivery charges cannot be used to reach that minimum. Scotland's deposit return scheme for drinks containers is due to launch alongside England and Northern Ireland's in October 2027. Customers in the Highlands and Islands are sensitive to delivery surcharges, which carriers often add.
We work with Edinburgh brands remotely. Our Shopify developers build stores with age verification, international shipping for drinks where carriers allow it, and gifting features. Our marketing team runs paid media and Klaviyo flows that turn a summer visit to the city into repeat orders all year.

[ FAQ ]
What Edinburgh brands ask us before starting a Shopify project.
Yes. We build age verification into the journey, set shipping rules so alcohol only goes to destinations your carriers and licences allow, and configure limited releases with per-customer limits. We also make sure discounts and bundles respect Scotland's minimum unit pricing. Licensing and duty decisions stay with you and your advisers; we build the store to match them.
We set postcode-based shipping rates in Shopify so remote customers see an accurate, fair price before checkout rather than a surprise. Where your carrier mix allows, we route those orders through services without heavy surcharges. Being upfront about delivery costs to remote Scottish postcodes is a simple way to earn trust and repeat orders.
Scotland's scheme is due to launch in October 2027, alongside the scheme for England and Northern Ireland, covering single-use drinks containers. Producers will need to register and plan for deposits and labelling. Amendments in 2025 removed mandatory takeback for online sales. We can update product pages and pricing in Shopify when the details are final.
No. We are a remote team working from Pakistan, and we work with Edinburgh brands through calls in the UK morning, shared project boards and recorded walkthroughs. We do not claim Scottish staff or a local office. We offer focused Shopify, CRO and marketing capacity for brands that sell Scotland to the world.
