The new units create a spacious office area and provide a warehouse and manufacturing workshop facility. They also provide the firm with adequate room to store specialist tools, supplies and equipment, much of it from Europe, that it uses to manufacture its shellfish storage systems.
In 2021, the business, which has been assisted by InvestFife. managed to increase its turnover by 50 per cent, and is on course for a further hike this year.

“We can bring in new staff in a range of positions from school leaver to management level, knowing that we have a suitable working environment for everyone. We have our eye firmly on sustainability, with the aim of creating a sustainable shellfish fishery, and these new premises will help us achieve this.
“The EU exit has meant for us that many European suppliers are asking for much larger minimum orders than before. A lack of space was a real barrier to us in so many ways in our future ambitions.”
