Additionally, this acquisition further strengthens our position throughout Scotland. Alongside the long-established Molson Young Plant Sales business, the addition of Finlay Scotland ensures that our comprehensive 360-degree product offer to customers is available to customers across England, Wales and now Scotland too.鈥�
Finlay Scotland managing director Tom McNeill, who previously co-owned the business with Morris Wightman, said: 鈥淔inlay Scotland Ltd is one of the longest serving dealers for Terex Finlay and can trace its roots back to the days when the business was originally owned by John Finlay.

We are very excited for the future direction and growth expectations for this operation and we look forward to ensuring a seamless transition of business for our staff and customers.鈥�
