In the 1950s Ken Macgregor started up a small business in Melbourne manufacturing cakes, yeast buns and pies. By 1954, the owner had moved his family to Perth and restarted his wholesale business as "Bakewell Pies". The business moved to its Morley site in 1968 and the next generation of the family, Iain Macgregor became the new owner of the business. In the late 1980s, the business had seen  vast growth in distribution, new technology and products developed and the company rebranded to the Mrs Mac's name. In February 2015, Mrs Mac's appointed Paul Slaughter as CEO. Products. Mrs Mac's are now sold throughout Australia, New Zealand, Hong Kong and Singapore.

In 2007, Mrs Mac's launched the slow food campaign, encouraging consumers to see its products as something best eaten in moderation and in a family environment.
