CMS Window Systems has landed a contract worth over £10m for the prestigious Atlantic Square development in Glasgow which provides a secure future for its 250-strong workforce, and means it has a record order book valued at £65m over the next three years.
David Ritchie, the Cumbernauld-based company’s chief operating officer said: “Winning this contract provides vital job security for our 250 employees who work in both manufacturing and on-site installation roles, and it creates a strong platform for us to invest in the future of the business. Recent economic surveys have painted a relatively negative picture for Scotland’s manufacturing and construction sectors, so it is fantastic to be bucking the trend with a healthy outlook.”
