Morris & Spottiswood Deliver Xmas Splendour

Construction News Image
Just when everyone else is taking advantage of late night shopping for Christmas, father and son Gordon and Graham Shillady of Morris & Spottiswood have finished a very different kind of late night shopping.

Their Morris & Spottiswood fitout team has been working overnight recently to ensure Glasgow upmarket shopping centre Princes Square is looking its best.

"I’ve heard a few people saying how great Princes Square is looking," said Contracts Manager Gordon, "I don’t think they realise we’ve been working through the night while the centre was closed, then clearing up before the shops opened again in the morning. We’ve been doing this on Phase 3 & 4, night after night for the last 8 months but the hard work has really been worth it, it’s been a great project to work on."

The Princes Square management team were also pleased with the results, and recently presented Gordon and Graham with engraved gifts as a huge thank you for their efforts.

Business Unit Director Mark Wanless commented: "I am delighted when customers notice the efforts and qualities of our teams. We are receiving praise on more and more projects, which confirms that we are listening to our customers’ needs."

Morris & Spottiswood is a fitout, housing and maintenance contractor and has extensive experience working in live environments throughout Scotland and the North of England, with shopping centres a speciality. They recently replaced escalators in Fishergate Shopping Centre in Preston, refurbished a food court in Crystal Peaks Shopping Centre in Sheffield and replaced customer toilets in The Centre, Livingston. Previous work includes The Printworks in Manchester, St Enoch Centre in Glasgow and the Bon Accord Centre in Aberdeen.
