Meet the Grahams

We’ve been farming for three generations.

It really is in our blood. When you grow up on a farm you learn the ropes pretty quickly – the best ways to look after our herds, lending a hand in the milking parlour and helping run the business. Now, son Robert and daughter Carol love getting stuck in too. And that includes the mucking out occasionally.

I was born in the farmhouse we now work from. My father started the business in 1939 and I began helping on the farm from a very early age. By the age of 12 I was helping to deliver the milk within the local area by horse and cart until I ‘officially’ joined the business in 1960 when I was 19. I’ve not stopped since!

Key milestones for me were our first acquisition of Sunnylaws Dairy in Bridge of Allan in 1962 and purchasing our first milk pasteuriser in 1968.

I adore our Graham’s Gold range, lovingly produced from our award-winning pedigree Jersey herd.

With the arrival of Carol then Robert while growing milk production to 400,000 pints a day I reckon we managed to do both.

Anyone visiting the farmhouse will know how much I love to bake, so Graham’s butter range has to be my favourite product.

Next year we will be celebrating 60 years of marriage and 86 years in business so I’d better get planning!

We obviously spent a lot of our childhood on the farm and seeing the workings of the dairy. But it wasn’t until I joined in 1991 aged 21 that I really got to understand the business. I worked in every department, from milking cows to delivering the milk, until I took over from Dad as Managing Director in 1996. We have grown considerably since then but are very proud of our family business and agricultural roots. We could not do it without the support of our fellow dairy farmers.

I like to live a healthy lifestyle so am particularly passionate about the launch of our SKYR and Protein 25 ranges and with three children at home, my freezer is always jam packed with Graham’s ice cream.

I studied PE, Sports Science and English at Loughborough University and then went on to teach PE at a Preparatory School in Hertfordshire.  After completing an MBA, I worked for the Scottish Sports Council as a coaching development officer.

This healthy experience provided great inspiration to my role as marketing director when I joined the business in 1996.  I am particularly proud of driving our 2006 rebrand, which dramatically extended awareness of Graham’s products.

I love the delicious taste and goodness of our Organic Range.
