Stephen Rafferty

Journalist — Edinburgh business and trade news for The Edinburgh Reporter, including food and drink openings. A former crime correspondent at The Scotsman and staff reporter at the Daily Record and Edinburgh Evening News, since freelance across the Scottish and UK nationals.

Listed with the critics and writers in Edinburgh.

Stephen Rafferty has a long newsroom record and writes under his own byline, and his openings pieces carry the operator's own words plus the corporate detail other coverage drops (which parent company, which partnership, which earlier concepts). His Pronto Slice piece is the source for Belmonte Catering's whole street-food stable, which the parallel Evening News write-up of the same launch omits.
