New Event For Scottish Construction Industry

Oliver Kinross has announced the first Scotland Build 2015 event, which will be held at Glasgow's Scottish Exhibition and Conference Centre (SECC) later this year.

The event, taking place from 25 – 26 November 2015, will welcome more than 10,000 attendees and over 175 exhibitors.

The announcement follows a period of growth in the Scottish construction industry. From July 2013 to July 2014, Scotland held 11% of the value of contracts awarded in Britain, behind London and the South West of England, with the value of Scottish contracts said to be around £6.8bn, Oliver Kinross has said.

A number of new infrastructure projects are underway, including the Aberdeen Western Peripheral Route, the Edinburgh Glasgow Improvements Programme (EGIP), as well as the Scottish Government's Help To Buy scheme.

In a statement, Oliver Kinross said it was "delighted" to host the event, at such a prosperous time in Scotland's construction industry.

Registration for Scotland Build 2015 is free and now open online.
