Making Scotland the World Leader in Supporting, Educating

and Celebrating Family Businesses.

Introduction

Family businesses are of key importance to the economy in Scotland and beyond…

• 45% of the UK’s GDP is produced by family enterprises
• 50% of the private sector workforce in Scotland is employed by family businesses
• Almost 70% of Scottish businesses describe themselves as family businesses, reflecting the European norm where 75% of businesses are family firms

Scottish Family Business Assocation (SFBA)

Two years ago the SFBA embarked on its mission to put in place the structures and resources necessary to ensure all family businesses in Scotland could access the specialist help, support and skills to enable them to grow and flourish over successive generations.  

The aim of the SFBA is to make Scotland the recognised world leader in celebrating, educating and supporting family businesses.
