Haulage firm JHP expands with £300,000 package
Lanark-based JHP Transport has moved from its original base in Shotts and transformed a 5,000 sq ft farm complex in Sandilands into its new headquarters and distribution centre.
The firm, which has secured the additional funding from Bank of Scotland, has recently taken on ten additional drivers and invested in four extra vehicles to take its fleet up to 32.

“Before the move a lot of vehicles had to be stored offsite in truck stops and in other rented locations around Scotland. It’s great to now have everyone under one roof.”
