Prima Bakeries has been at the heart of Cornish baking since 1978. Originally established by the Buist family as a pizza base manufacturer, the business quickly evolved into the fully fledged craft bakery it is today. Ross, the third generation of the Buist family to bake at Prima, ensures that all our products are made to the very highest quality and flavour each day.
Prima’s bakery production site is adjacent to the A30 at Scorrier near Redruth in the heart of the County, and we are incredibly proud of our heritage as a Cornish bakery. Our recipes for traditional local delicacies such as our Saffron Buns or Hevva Cake have been passed down from father to son, and we constantly strive for the ultimate experience in taste and freshness. We pride ourselves on creating authentic handmade products for our local community through our on-site shop, and the whole of Cornwall through our wholesale service.
We are the only County-wide wholesale baker and pasty maker, serving over 500 customers the length and breadth of Cornwall. You will find our bakery goods sold in convenience stores and independent retail outlets as well as being served in pubs, hotels, cafes, and restaurants throughout the Duchy.
