There’s no better month than the one St. Andrew’s Day (30th November) falls in to devote our blog to a celebration of Scottish business excellence at Heathhall Business Centre. You will find all our businesses listed in our Tenant Directory, plus we have case studies for more of a drill-down into who’s who at Heathall Industrial Estate and the story of the people behind the business.
If you’re looking to relocate your business to the Centre, all of our workspaces come with free, high-speed broadband access, and you will find all the information you need in our Commercial Property To Rent in Dumfries section.
Here’s just the tip of the iceberg of the Scottish business excellence at Heathhall Business Centre – all our tenants are scaling the same dizzy heights of customer service and professionalism, and we will do a follow-up blog to include more of them.

J&J Runcie Plasterers Ltd
Established in 1994, J&J Runcie Plasterers Ltd is a leading light in plastering and external wall insulation services – from Dumfries to Lerwick.
They’ve built a robust reputation for quality workmanship and service, including all types of plastering, internal and external, plus external wall insulation, now a major part of the business.
They carry out work for private householders as well as undertaking large projects in the health, social housing, education and hotel sectors, with values ranging from £1,000 to £1.5m.
They are totally committed to innovation and the ongoing improvement of the services they offer and regularly invest in new skills and systems.
They offer the same high standards of work and integrity at the most competitive price for jobs both large and small and regardless of the size of the contract.
Wood Fuel Cooperative
The Wood Fuel Co-operative began in 2011, bringing together a group of like-minded folk to combine resources with one singular objective: to supply premium quality wood fuel at the most economic prices.
Their shop at Heathhall Business Centre continues to serve the residents of Dumfries & Galloway and the rest of the UK via its online shop, so everyone can benefit from their great range of wood briquettes, wood pellets, traditional logs and top quality wild bird food.
In 2019, the Wood Fuel Co-operative changed from a members’ co-operative to become a workers’ co-operative. For customers and members, this didn’t change a thing – it only gave the hard-working staff a chance to take a share in the running of the business and of any profits generated.
