Designed to reflect the company’s commitment to innovation, sustainability and exceptional customer service, the new logo has been added to Dunns’ fleet of vehicles to enhance customer recognition.

“Our rebrand is more than just a new logo and look; it signifies a new chapter for Dunns,” said managing director Jim Rowan. “We wanted to create a brand identity that reflects our rich heritage while also representing the dynamic and forward-thinking company we are today. Our new look embodies our commitment to providing exceptional products and services to our customers.”

Dunns has also made significant investments in its team and operations. The company has expanded its sales division with five new food business development managers, including executive development chef Donnie Munro. With a career catering to celebrities such as Jack Nicholson, Michael Douglas, Billy Connolly, Lenny Henry, and royalty, Munro brings a wealth of experience to the Dunns team.

“We are thrilled to welcome Donnie to the Dunns family,” said Rowan. “His expertise and passion for food will be invaluable as we continue to elevate our offerings and support our customers.”

In addition, Dunns is committed to sustainability and has invested £1.5 million in eco-friendly initiatives over the last year. This includes a £1 million energy-efficient CO2 freezer, solar panels and LED lighting, bringing the company closer to its long-term net zero goals.

“Sustainability is at the heart of our business,” said Julie Dunn, operations director. “We are proud to be a family-owned company with a rich history, and we are committed to ensuring Dunns remains a thriving force in the Scottish hospitality industry for generations to come. These investments are a testament to our dedication to both our people and the planet.”
