A Grangemouth firm hopes to extend onto greenbelt land after winning an exclusive contract with Mercedes that will bring 30 skilled jobs to the area.
Alltruck, which repairs and services commercial vehicles at its premises near Skinflats, was backed by Falkirk Council's planning committee after they heard that the firm has been asked to establish a Mercedes truck dealership covering the whole of Scotland.
Peter Hoggan from Alltruck said the offer from Mercedes was "a once-in-a-lifetime" chance for the firm and would be "a great opportunity to future-proof our business".
