Building for the future: Investing in our facilities in Fraserburgh 4

The project is phase one of a multi-phase investment project for Fraserburgh, which will also see the development of a new facility for its accident and repair shop, which oversees repairs for motor cars and light commercial vehicles. This phase will also centralise heavy car repairs onto the same site and will build on the company’s foundation, as a Body Repair Shop, honouring the roots of the business. This move will then release additional facilities in the main production plant for a future phase of redevelopment. Overall, this investment supports improved and increased manufacturing capacity for panel development – a vital part of the Gray & Adams build process – and will also increase efficiency through creating streamlined productions, allowing for more improvements which will further support the wider Gray & Adams Group. Gray & Adams’ Managing Directors, James and Peter Gray, said “Given the circumstances we are living and operating under, investing in our business and our employees, will enhance our manufacturing capabilities as well as creating new opportunities for our people. The development of this new facility has already led to increased employment in the area with the creation of 15 new roles in the business and is the first part of our phased approach to developing our Fraserburgh site. Our investment will allow us greater flexibility in the manufacturing process as we move into phase two of the development project and beyond, as we move through 2021 and into 2022, our 65th year in operation.”
