Tod's of Orkney Ltd, the parent company of the brand Stockan's Oatcakes, can trace its origins back to the 1890's when a young Gilbert Archer (the great grandfather of the current generation, Irene and Catriona) joined Tod's, a wholesale grocer based in Leith, Edinburgh. As the business grew it moved north, a natural extension when working out of Leith, as boats owned by the North of Scotand Orkney & Shetland Steam Navigation Company plied their trade to the Orkney Islands and the north of Scotland.
We are a 4th generation, family-owned award winning business and our handmade oatcakes are enjoyed all around the globe. Of course there have been changes over the years but what has remained constant is pride in our heritage, our focus on quality and a loyal workforce - many of whom have been with us over 20 years, and even some for over 40 years.
