Electricals company Campbell & Kennedy said it has opened an office in Banchory, Aberdeenshire after securing contracts in the area.
Managing director Gerry Kennedy said the new office will help boost company turnover from £8 million to £12m by end-December, and comes after it opened a premises in Northern Ireland last year.
The business, based in Clydebank Business Park, said it was recently appointed to deliver electrical contracting and solar panel installation contracts for new-build housing in Aberdeen. This includes housing being developed under the Scottish Government's Greener Home Innovation Scheme for Muirfield Contracts.
Campbell & Kennedy is also contracted to deliver Sky Communal TV across Scotland.
Regarding the new office, Mr Kennedy said: "We have been operating in the Aberdeenshire area for a long time now, so this was a natural move for us and part of our growth strategy."
Earlier this month he announced that Alan Campbell would be rejoining the company on October 6 as finance director.
Campbell & Kennedy's four divisions include electrical contracting, fire safety and green energy installation services, plus digital TV.
Why are you making commenting on The Herald only available to subscribers?
It should have been a safe space for informed debate, somewhere for readers to discuss issues around the biggest stories of the day, but all too often the below the line comments on most websites have become bogged down by off-topic discussions and abuse.
