Cooplands (Scarborough) Ltd. is a family-run bakery chain which has stores across North, South and East Yorkshire, offering sandwiches, bread loaves, desserts and cakes. Cooplands has a notable share^{[citation needed]} of the lunch-time market in large cities such as Sheffield, York and Hull.

They compete directly with larger national and international chains/franchises such as Greggs and Subway.

The first Cooplands was founded in the North Yorkshire seaside town of Scarborough in 1885.

In 1999 Cooplands opened 10 new stores, thus expanding production at its Scarborough-based bakery by about 75% leading to the creation of 80 new jobs.^{[citation needed]}

In June 2007 a further expansion was announced with the company purchasing the Hull-based Skeltons bakery frim that had gone into administration. The purchase increased the number of stores by 34 and also included two cafes and a bakery.^[1]

Cooplands offers a wide variety of sandwiches, all of which are made on the premises daily or as ordered by a customer. They offer many varieties of fillings such as egg mayonnaise, cheese or a variety of meats. They also have a varied choice of breads & Pastries including many seasonal products (For example Turkey & Cranberry bakes at Christmas)
