The Tartan Blanket Co opens first store in Edinburgh

The Tartan Blanket Co is opening its first brick-and-mortar store this summer in Edinburgh.

The new shop will be based on Great Junction Street, Leith, and will be opening its doors for customers on 25 June.

Founded by husband and wife team Fergus and Emma Macdonald, the brand has been online-only since its inception in 2014.

Chief executive Emma Macdonald said: “It has always been a dream to bring the TBCo. brand to life and create a space which feels warm and inviting to our wonderful community of customers.

“Our business has grown significantly over the last two years as we focus on sharing warmth through sustainable wool and helping people look good, feel good and do good - a sentiment which has resonated with the public during and post-pandemic.”

The shop will offer a curated selection of The Tartan Blanket Co’s sustainable blankets, scarves and accessories.

Emma said: “Our studio in Leith has been a base for our team to come together and build the brand; it has been our warehouse, our office, our photo studio and now soon to be our first store.”

The new shop follows a warehouse expansion in 2021 which saw The Tartan Blanket Co purchase a 32,000 sq ft in Newbridge, following a surge in revenue last year.
