“We’re a people-first business and our new HQ is designed around accommodating a modern approach to office life with hybrid working opportunities, new technology, and accessibility at the heart of it.
“Although we’ve expanded over the last few years to become a UK-wide business with over 85 retail outlets nationwide, our home is Glasgow and we’re delighted to continue to invest in the city centre that will support future job creation.”
Richard Muir, deputy chief executive of Glasgow Chamber of Commerce, added: “We very much welcome Barrhead Travel’s decision to move its official headquarters to Libertas House.
