Husband and wife team Alec and Sarah Cruikshank set up the Scottish Deli three years ago opening their first store in Pitlochry, followed in quick succession by a second in nearby Aberfeldy comprising a farm shop and café. More recently in early 2008 a third acquisition, their largest store yet, opened on the bustling main street of Dunkeld. Having built up an exclusive list of contacts around the world the Scottish Deli is able to sources an enviable range of essential store cupboard and meal time essential food items for customers. Visitors to the stores will find everything from cheese to olives, cold meats, homemade quiche, soup, pasta, seasonings, jams, tea as well as organic meat including venison, beef, free range chicken, pate, cordials, fine wines cakes, vegetables and sauces. Alec advises 'I like to make as much as possible from scratch and we have a team of chefs that work at our Pitlochry distribution centre to provide a selection of items to sell in the deli's and café. We even make a range of nutritious Perthshire ready meals. But perhaps the easiest way to showcase the best of our Scottish produce is in our daily menu and sandwich range'.One of Alec's biggest passions is cheese, a subject on which he is also very knowledgeable. The Scottish Deli's each currently stocks over 70 hand-cut cheeses, with at least 40 of them being Scottish, personally selected by Alec.The Scottish Deli retails online at as well as over the counter.
