A major PPE supplier has announced expansion plans that will result in the creation of “hundreds of new jobs” for Dumfries and Galloway.
Globus Group is set to create a centre of excellence for PPE in Heathhall with hopes it will lead to the company becoming the largest personal protection equipment manufacturer in Europe.
A company spokesman said: “The expansion will create hundreds of new jobs in the region on top of the hundreds already created by the building of the Lochside factory.”
