THE regeneration of Ravenscraig in North Lanarkshire has achieved another milestone with the completion of Motus Commercials’ new 38,000 sq ft commercial vehicle workshop and sales facility within the site’s dedicated employment zone, SevenFourEight.
The new facility will support the sale, servicing and maintenance of heavy goods vehicles. Motus Commercials, which operates as the UK’s largest dealer group for DAF Trucks, has relocated from its previous Bellshill site, providing increased capacity and improved working conditions for its team.
Russell Wilkie, director at Ravenscraig Limited, said, “The completion of Motus Commercials’ new facility is another significant step forward for Ravenscraig as we continue to deliver on our vision of creating a thriving business and employment hub. This investment reinforces the strength of demand for high-quality industrial space at Ravenscraig and highlights the site’s strategic importance within Scotland’s central belt, creating opportunities for long-term economic growth and jobs in the area.”
Daniel Fitzjohn, commercial director, Motus Commercials, added, “The opening of our new facility at Ravenscraig marks an important milestone for Motus Commercials and reflects our continued commitment to investing in our network, our people and our customers. The site provides the additional capacity, modern facilities and strategic location we need to support future growth, while ensuring we continue to deliver the highest levels of service and support to operators across Scotland. We are pleased to now be fully operational at Ravenscraig and look forward to becoming part of the site’s ongoing success story.”
