Established in 1845, Robert Mackie of Scotland is a premium international accessory manufacturer of the finest knitted scarves, hats and gloves using only natural fibres. With beautiful accessories knitted using mainly 100% Pure New Wool, the company has a wealth of experience and craftsmanship.

Everything Robert Mackie produces is made in-house in their factory in Stewarton in Ayrshire; nothing is outsourced - therefore they can proudly label their products “Made in Scotland”.

With more than 30 styles and a multitude of colours, Robert Mackie's Wholesale Collection draws on the rich textile heritage of Ayrshire. Each collection features indulgent modern wardrobe classics and has made Robert Mackie famous for not only quality Scottish knitted accessories, but for incorporating vibrant colours and patterns. With a low minimum order requirement, in-stock items and flexibility around own branding and alternate colourways, their wholesale offering is adaptable for both retailers and brands alike.
