Contractor Heron Bros is holding a Meet the Buyer event in Glasgow next week to meet prospective suppliers and subcontractors for its two school building projects in the city.

East Renfrewshire Council has appointed Heron Bros as the principal contractor for the £18m new Faith Schools’ Joint Campus and a £7m extension and refurbishment works at Crookfur Primary School.

Next week’s meeting, hosted by Constructionline at Fairweather Hall, Glasgow on the 14th June 2016, will provide attendees with the information needed to bid for work on the schemes.

Each project will require extensive indoor and outdoor work, and Heron Bros is keen to meet SMEs specialising in various trades at the event, including painting, bricklaying, cladding, plastering, joinery, metalwork, partitions, and external windows and doors. (Click here for the full list.)

Heron Bros commercial manager Cathal Heron said: “We’re eager to build a network of contacts in the area so that we can make our local supply chain as robust as possible. Our procurement staff will be on hand to discuss these projects in further detail and give advice on how our bidding process works.

The free event will run from 8am until 10:30am. Suppliers do not have to be a Constructionline member to attend.
