💔 Iconic Glasgow Bakery Mortons Rolls Ceases Trading
In a devastating blow to its employees and customers, Mortons Rolls has announced that it will be ceasing to trade immediately. The company, which was founded in 1965, had been a staple of the Scottish bakery industry for decades and the go-to cure for many a hungover Glaswegian over the years.
The news of Mortons Rolls' closure came as a shock to many, particularly the 250 members of staff who have been left uncertain about their futures.
Concerns have also been raised about the wider impact in Glasgow as the closure is likely to have a ripple effect on other businesses in the supply chain, as well as on the local community.
Many people have expressed their sadness and disbelief at the news, taking to social media to share their memories of Mortons Rolls and express their support for the company's employees.
Unless a solution is found, the loss of Mortons Rolls will mark the end of an era for the Scottish bakery industry, and is a stark reminder of the challenges facing businesses in an increasingly competitive and uncertain economic environment.
