Peckham's advertised itself as a vintners, victuallers and delicatessen company, and also offered luxury hampers & gifts online.

It was also reported that Peckham and Rye previously had to fight off a sheriff court petition to wind up the business in July 2002.

In June 2017, Peckham's Scotland Limited was placed into liquidation[8] shortly after the two remaining stores were taken over by Andrew Duncan and Lee Fish.

[10] In August 2018, Peckham's announced the closure of both remaining stores after the pair failed to attract additional investment, 14 months after their purchase of the sites.

[12] In 2021, Johnston opened a new branch on the site of the original store on Clarence Drive in the West End of Glasgow.
