The agreement with Crown and Boise comes as Inverness-based Pasquill completes a £4m investment programme at its facilities in Uddingston, Glasgow and Redhill, Surrey.

This has seen a 6,000ft2 extension added to the Uddingston site and a new 35,000ft2 facility at Redhill.

“We believe this new relationship with Boise, and expanded relationship with Crown, to be hugely significant,” said Pasquill managing director Bill Anderson. “The independence of action it brings for our design and pricing will create major benefits for our customers and for ourselves in our mutual future trading.”
