Rok Stirling Become 250th Member Of Forth Construction Scheme

Forth Construction has announced that Rok Stirling has become the 250th company to take up membership of the scheme.

Having recently opened new offices in Stirling, Rok is keen to engage with the local construction community and believes that the Forth Construction scheme will be an excellent vehicle to do so.

Forth Construction has been set up to support companies working in the construction sector across East central Scotland including helping smaller companies get on major client's supply chains. It is funded by Scottish Enterprise and housed by Clackmannanshire Council.

Andy McLinden, Rok's area leader for Stirling, said: "Central Scotland has a healthy and diverse economy and we are very proud of the active role that we take in the area. We are delighted to join Forth Construction forum, welcoming the opportunities that membership offers to nurture relationships, not only with other companies, but with the wider community as well."

Forth Construction's Martin Reid said: "We are obviously delighted to have such a reputable and high profile organisation joining the scheme and for them to become the 250th member is a landmark both companies are proud of.

"We intend to welcome Rok properly by putting on a breakfast session on at the River House Restaurant in Stirling on the 27th August, giving them the chance to speak to our members, outline future plans and advise on how to get on Rok's supply chain".
