Eskbank Trading

Your local family owned newsagent, general convenience store & specialist beer & wine merchant.
(21)

Opened nearly 40 years ago in 1975, Eskbank Trading remains a family owned business to this day. Following in the footsteps of their mother and father, the shop is kept today by brothers Bobby and Alan McCorquodale. Eskbank Trading is first and foremost a convenience store, providing polite and friendly assistance in many areas such as food, groceries, newspapers and magazines, beers, wines, toile

tries, pet supplies, dry cleaning and National Lottery services. At Eskbank Trading we particularly pride ourselves on our vast range of beers and real ales. From beers brewed locally to beers brewed on the other side of the world, our award winning selection of beers and real ales promises to provide something for everyone! Thanks to the cooperation of local breweries and winemakers we also host beer and wine tastings in store.
