A new owner is being sought for a factory which was once a major employer in Cumnock.

The Caledonian Bottlers site at Cumnock Business Park just off Glaisnock Road closed at the end of 2022 after the operating company decided it was unsustainable.

Around 40 jobs were lost at the time following a consultation process into the factory's efficiency.

After 28 years in Cumnock, the factory closed and has been empty ever since.

Now, its next owner could just around the corner, as a Rightmove listing features the factory along with two additional units.

The cost of the whole lot would be divulged upon applications of interest in the property, which is being marketed by GF1 Investments Limited, Kelloholm.

A property description with the listing states: "The properties are located within Cumnock Business Park, a well-established business and industrial location.


"Close by lies Caponacre Industrial Estate which combines with Cumnock Business Park to house the area's key established business and industrial users."
