Water jobs in Scotland
Employee numbers at Eden Springs' Scotland operations have trebled since 2001, and Eden's Jean-Marc Bolinger confirmed a strong commitment to the local area: “We will continue to develop our HQ in Blantyre and investments are planned in almost all areas of the business. As the company grows, the concentration of jobs in Scotland are likely to increase, underpinning our key role as a local employer."

“Our industry is currently undergoing a period of major consolidation which presents a significant opportunity for Eden Springs to expand" explains Jean-Marc Bolinger, UK Managing Director. "Over the next few years we look forward to developing new products and partnerships, and building on the environmental sustainability of our production and distribution networks.”
