R&W Scott was first established in 1873 by
                             local brothers Robert and William Scott.


                             The  pair  started  harvesting  strawberries  at
                             Mashockmill  Orchard  in  Carluke  before  the
                             company  was  officially  founded  in  1880.  For
                             more  than  130  years,  R&W  Scott  has  been

                             handcrafting preserves and jams from its site
    in the heart of Carluke with local people at the helm. The company
    employs  98  people  and  some  have  been  there  for  more  than  30
    years. R&W Scott is one of the lead sponsors of the Jam and Ham
    Festival.

    Managing Director John Easton is hugely
    proud of the company’s local roots.


    “R&W Scott is delighted to be
    supporting  the  Jam  and  Ham  Festival
    once again.

    Being a local business, we are aware of the importance of

    community within Carluke. The festival also gives us the opportunity
    to showcase our products to the people of Carluke.

    R&W Scott prides itself on family and community connections, so to
    sponsor a festival which promotes both is very important for us.”
