Doors By Design, Scotland’s leading manufacturer of high quality veneered and laminated doorsets, has announced ambitious plans for expansion this coming Autumn.
A £200k inward investment programme will allow the Company to move from it’s existing 6000sq ft premises in Inchinnan Business Park, near Glasgow airport, to a much larger facility nearby.
The Scottish Executive is supporting Doors By Design’s growth with a £120k RSA grant which will see the company increase it’s workforce to 40 staff.
Managing Director, Barbara Fraser explained: “Doors By Design has enjoyed steady growth since setting up in 1998. We’ve outgrown our current manufacturing facility and it’s now time for Doors by Design to move onwards and upwards. We will be recruiting further over the next few weeks and months at all levels from shop floor workers to senior managers. As part of our factory move, we will be replacing and upgrading much of our machinery thereby increasing capability and capacity to meet growing demand for our products.”
The deal on the new premises is currently being finalised and further information on the expansion plans will be made public shortly.
