Paisley Daily Express
|October 27, 2025
A surge of new businesses are poised to power a new era of enterprise in Paisley, the chair of Paisley First has said.
More than 20 firms have launched enterprises in the town so far this year and they, together with veteran retailers, have praised the community spirit locally.
They spoke as Paisley was named as Scotland's Town of the Year in the 2025 Scotland Loves Local Awards.
Elaine Templeton owns Taste Buds cafe on Lawn Street and is chair of Paisley First Business Improvement District.
She said: “There are so many new businesses coming into the town.
"There's something that's exciting people to come in and base themselves here. It's so good and a crucial part of the journey to reinvent the town.
“So many of the businesses have been small, local and independent. We've a real mix of businesses bringing something different, which makes people want to shop locally and spend in the town centre.”
