A popular bakery on Torry’s Victoria Road has closed to customers due to the need for more production space.
Shot ‘N’ Roll creates a wide variety of delicious cinnamon rolls served along with coffees and drinks and has proven popular in Aberdeen.
Since opening its first store in the Trinity Centre last year, the company has expanded to several locations around the city and in Edinburgh.
They opened their newest takeaway on Victoria Road in May this year, which was a hit with school pupils and residents in the area.
However, as the business has expanded, the company claims it needs more space for production.
Shot ‘N’ Roll in Torry no longer a takeaway
Now, Shot ‘N’ Roll has announced on social media that the Torry bakery will be a solely production bakery with no customer services.
The statement said: “We assessed all options and it made the most sense to relocate the shop front of our Victoria Road bakery to Shiprow Village so that we could easily and quickly add 30% floor space in the bakery to continue to fulfil further growth.”
Erica Simona-Parfene, area manager told The P&J the company wanted “more control of our own product and supply chain”.
Since opening several new outlets, demand has come much faster than they anticipated, hence the need for a bigger production space.
She added: “We had the opportunity to relocate our existing equipment and shop fit to Shiprow Village, while also developing a new warm cinnamon roll offering ideal for grabbing on the go, such as on the way up to the Christmas market.
“While the customer facing shop front has relocated, we are still very much a part of the Torry community and immensely proud to call it home to our business.”
