A family run company since quarry operations commenced at Lochhead
quarry in Forfar in 1958, Laird Brothers
is now a flourishing fourth generation independent
company.
The company has strengthened
its product portfolio and is now Scotland’s largest dense concrete
block manufacturer, while also being
recognised as one of the best in terms of quality and service, for both
concrete blocks and Readymix concrete.
Achieving this
position while competing in a highly
competitive marketplace, largely composed
of multinationals, has facilitated an ambition within our company to
further enhance our product and customer base.
A £4 million
investment in a new concrete factory,
which will enable us to manufacture a
wider variation of concrete products
is now underway. This symbolises our passion and dedication for supplying
the building industry competitively priced concrete products in the
East of Scotland. Furthermore Laird Brothers owns its own fleet of
lorries which delivers around 90% of our products to customers.
We
can offer our customers a quality product
at a highly competitive price delivered
to them. This is the foundation of our
business model and is only achievable with a first class workforce
and internally supplied aggregates. Not being a PLC allows us to respond
to the demands of our customers and the market via independent decision
making thus engendering an efficiency unrivalled by our competition.
