Graham Construction has strengthened its presence in the Dumfries and Galloway region by opening a new office in Heathhall.

The company is currently carrying out work on four projects in the region; The Bridge, St Joseph's College, North West Campus and Dalbeattie Learning Campus.

The entire Graham Group has delivered or is in the process of delivering more than £2 billion of projects in Scotland – with over £80 million of these in Dumfries and Galloway.

The official opening ceremony was attended by Council Leader Elaine Murray, Depute Leader Rob Davidson and pupils from Heathhall Primary, who were completing an art competition.

Regional Development Director Craig Bridges said the new base will help the company reach out to a wider-network of clients and supply chain partners.

"It's exciting to commence the next phase of GRAHAM's presence in Dumfries and Galloway, building on links to the region which began over 15 years ago but have intensified since 2013," she said.

"We are currently undertaking four major projects on behalf of the local council in partnership with HUB South West, each within the education sector.

"We have created 28 jobs for the region since starting these major projects in 2013 and looking forward we're confident we can further expand the local team, taking on new employees and sub-contractors, alongside a developed supply-chain."
