About Us

The Scottish Family Business Association is the definitive authority on family business issues in Scotland since 2006. We are a non-profit organisation and a registered charity created for business families by family business leaders from Scotland.

73% of all businesses in Scotland are family firms and the employ half of all workers in the private sector. They are vital to employment and well-being in local communities in all parts of the country.



Family businesses are a form of enterprise with unique issues and advantages. The Scottish Family Business Association exists to help family businesses and business families realise their full potential.
