Bramble Hub and our partner Grant Thornton have been awarded a contract by Dumfries and Galloway Council for the provision of consultancy services. The exercise forms part of a programme by the South of Scotland Business Infrastructure Programme (SOSBIP) to examine and remedy a shortage of high-quality business premises in the region.
Grant Thornton is tasked with delivering three business cases for intervention in the property market, in order to “… address market failure in the supply side [of commercial property] that is undermining growth in the economy of the South of Scotland”.
Dumfries and Galloway Council is a unitary local authority covering a population of around 150,000 people in SW Scotland.
The project was awarded via Management Consultancy Framework Three (MCF3) from Crown Commercial Service.
