Scottish specialist training firm Ritchies HGV Training Centre has collapsed into administration with dozens of employees made redundant, writes Chris Tindall.
Michelle Elliot and Callum Carmichael at business advisory firm FRP were appointed as joint administrators to the company on Tuesday (28 May).
The Glasgow-based firm was founded in 1983 and offered training for lorry drivers in the haulage industry, as well as for construction plant and forklift operators.
In a statement, the administrator said 36 employees had been made redundant while a marketing process for a sale of the business and assets, including vehicles, plant machinery and the site, was explored.
Walter Ritchie, the founder of Ritchies Training Centre, passed away earlier this year.
