A BARRHEAD-based construction company has “gone into administration", it is believed.
It is understood that Allma Construction, which is based on Muriel Street in the town, has closed its doors.
The civil engineering company has been a part of the town’s business sector since 1991.
Workers from the firm shared their sadness with the news on social media.
One said: “After over 25 years plus service it is a sad blow that yesterday one of the best civil engineering companies in Glasgow and West Central Scotland closed its doors.
“Allma Construction Ltd went into administration.”
While another added: “A sad day for everyone involved yesterday. 19 years’ service for myself at Allma.”
Why are you making commenting on The National only available to subscribers?
We know there are thousands of National readers who want to debate, argue and go back and forth in the comments section of our stories. We’ve got the most informed readers in Scotland, asking each other the big questions about the future of our country.
Unfortunately, though, these important debates are being spoiled by a vocal minority of trolls who aren’t really interested in the issues, try to derail the conversations, register under fake names, and post vile abuse.
So that’s why we’ve decided to make the ability to comment only available to our paying subscribers. That way, all the trolls who post abuse on our website will have to pay if they want to join the debate – and risk a permanent ban from the account that they subscribe with.
The conversation will go back to what it should be about – people who care passionately about the issues, but disagree constructively on what we should do about them. Let’s get that debate started!
