Park plan to bring jobs to Peterhead

Wed 27 Aug 2008 at 5:15 PM

Plans have been unveiled for a huge new retail park on the edge of Peterhead which is predicted to create hundreds of job vacancies in the area.

The scheme involves creating a 50,000 square foot park for eight large-scale shopping outlets and the Press and Journal reports that it already has backing from Aberdeenshire's Buchan area committee.

Hermiston Securities is leading the project and is apparently talking to a number of major retailers to take a space in the park.

Although numbers are yet to be confirmed, employment agencies will be pleased to hear that up to 300 new job vacancies could potentially be created.

A pub, restaurant and 45-room hotel is also planned for the site which will create an additional 50 job vacancies in a further boost to local employment.

The Press and Journal also reports that the Scottish government has approved in principle a £4.5 million grant enabling the Highland Council to use derelict land for various projects that could create 400 jobs.
