FRUIT and vegetable provider Failte Produce has completed the installation of £1.2 million worth of equipment.

The investment, at its base in the Fruit Market at Blochairn Industrial Estate, gives the Glasgow business fully-automated handling systems for washing, grading, sorting and packing vegetables.

The expenditure is expected to help improve efficiency.

The company is part of privately-owned Failte Holdings, which employs around 120 people and also has interests in food services and wholesale.
