Main contractor Wates Construction is hosting a ‘Meet the Buyer’ event, offering local suppliers the chance to tender for work packages from a range of different trades.
The event is taking place at Hugh Baird College on 4 October 2012 at 10am. Interested firms can email david.cain@wates.co.uk for more information.
Wates will start construction of the new 2,600 sq m educational facility this month with completion scheduled in time for the September 2013 academic year.
Tony Shenton, Business Unit Director for Wates Construction North West, said: “The new Hugh Baird College facility will significantly contribute to the area’s regeneration and we are keen to utilise the project to positively impact the region.
“It is through these events that we actively encourage close collaboration with local sub-contractors and suppliers, ensuring projects are a catalyst for economic growth.”
