BRIGHTWATER, the Musselburgh-based water services firm, has cited major customer wins as it secured nearly £2 million of new contracts in the last 12 months.
The company, founded by entrepreneur Roger Green and digital marketing expert Rich Rankin in 2016, said its customer portfolio is now worth more than £3m in terms of contracted revenues.
Recent contract wins include Glasgow-based Keane Premier Healthcare, which runs three care homes in the city.
Brightwater, which turned over £1.43m in its most recent accounting period, will provide water services to two of those sites, in Cambuslang and Rutherglen, initially.
The company has also recently won work with Q-park, the Scottish SPCA, (Society for Prevention of Cruelty to Animals), Kangaroo Self-Storage and Dublin-based Ogalas, servicing its Home Store + More retail outlets in Scotland.
Chief executive Mr Green, who founded UK-wide commercial cleaning business Spotless while studying at the University of Edinburgh in 1988, said: ““It’s been another positive year for the business. We’ve substantially built our contract portfolio which is now valued at £3.1m per year with 2,348 commercial premises being managed across Scotland.
“While the retail water market continues to be dominated by large corporates, things are changing as customers wake up to the benefits of partnering with a responsive and proactive supplier.”
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.
heraldscotland.com is tackling this problem by allowing only subscribers to comment.
We are doing this to improve the experience for our loyal readers and we believe it will reduce the ability of trolls and troublemakers, who occasionally find their way onto our site, to abuse our journalists and readers. We also hope it will help the comments section fulfil its promise as a part of Scotland's conversation with itself.
We are lucky at The Herald. We are read by an informed, educated readership who can add their knowledge and insights to our stories.
That is invaluable.
We are making the subscriber-only change to support our valued readers, who tell us they don't want the site cluttered up with irrelevant comments, untruths and abuse.
In the past, the journalist’s job was to collect and distribute information to the audience. Technology means that readers can shape a discussion. We look forward to hearing from you on heraldscotland.com
