Concept Promotional Merchandise, an Aberdeen-based merch and embroidery business, has brought a touch of local craftsmanship to one of Scotland’s most beloved and independently owned whisky brands: Glenfarclas.
The distillery shop now features high-quality, intricately embroidered products, thanks to Concept's innovative approach.
Robert Christie, managing director of Concept, discovered Glenfarclas over three years ago during a whisky tour at the Spirit of Speyside Whisky Festival. Fascinated by the rich flavours and independent history of Glenfarclas, it was a visit to the distillery shop that ignited his entrepreneurial spirit. Recognising an opportunity to enhance the shop & staff workwear offerings, he reached out to the Distillery Manager with a collaboration proposal.
Today, the popular Glenfarclas gift shop proudly showcases Concept’s meticulously produced products, each embroidered with the Glenfarclas branding. Known for their expertise, Concept’s team can deliver over 100 garments an hour using their 24 embroidery heads, ensuring short lead times and exceptional service to meet the distillery’s demands.
