Sweets in Inverurie: Thainstone Mart and Bruce's Motte

Inverurie's population is around 15,000, and the town's two big landmarks — a medieval castle mound and a livestock market — say a lot about how long people have been trading here.

The Bass of Inverurie

The Bass, now inside Inverurie Cemetery, is what's left of a motte-and-bailey castle built around the 1170s at the meeting of the Don and the Urie. It served as the administrative centre of the Garioch, and Robert the Bruce used it as a base before defeating the Earl of Buchan at the Battle of Inverurie in May 1308.

Thainstone Mart

A couple of miles south of town, Thainstone Mart is the flagship site of Aberdeen and Northern Marts and the biggest livestock auction market in Scotland. It's a serious agricultural hub — just not one that stocks bulk bags, vegan sweets or halal-friendly pick 'n' mix for a local party.

25,000+ customers, and counting

We've served over 25,000 customers UK-wide, Inverurie included, with most orders dispatched within 1-2 business days. The range covers pick 'n' mix by the bag and tub, bulk bags from 1kg to 3kg, trade cases for events and businesses, vegan and halal-friendly sweets, retro favourites, and full chocolate ranges from the major brands.
