Juliet Simpson, Managing Director of Stripe Communications said: “As the UK’s leading oatcake brand, Nairn’s has played a major role in growing the category over the last few years. As well as focusing on the health and lifestyle benefits of eating oatcakes, our campaign will support the new Nairn’s brand positioning and bring it to life in an engaging and inspiring way. We’re extremely proud to be working with one of Scotland’s most successful and contemporary brands.”
