The 3.5-acre depot at Houstoun Industrial Estate will be the firm’s main supply point for customers across Scotland.

Work has already started to ensure the depot will be fully supportive to both new and existing customers in Scotland.

The depot is currently open to trade and will be fully operational in January 2020.

Kevin Clarke, regional director, said: “We have been serving Scotland through our North East – Durham depot for 23 years, but I’m thrilled that we have opened a depot in Scotland as it will allow us to improve and strengthen our offering to our Scottish customers on a regional basis.”
