Edinburgh-based convenience store chain Margiotta Food and Wine has formed a partnership with Mimi’s Bakehouse.
The partnership means Mimi’s Bakehouse’s cakes, as brownies, tray-bakes and biscuits, will now be available to buy at the newly refurbished Margiotta Forrest Road store from 28 February. A limited-edition Birthday Cake Loaf will also be available to mark the launch of the partnership.
Franco Margiotta, Founder of Margiotta Food and Wine, told Edinburgh News: “Mimi’s Bakehouse is one of Edinburgh’s most beloved bakeries and we are proud to offer their products to our customers.”
Margiotta, which celebrates its 60th anniversary this year, was established shortly after the family moved to Edinburgh from Italy in 1957. It has a growing portfolio of stores, which include Comiston Road, Dundas Street, and the newly refurbished Forrest Road.
Michelle Philips, Owner of Mimi’s Bakehouse, told Edinburgh News: “Mimi’s Bakehouse is excited to launch this partnership with another Edinburgh heritage brand with a family business history and supporting the local community at its core.”
