The motion

That the Parliament congratulates Glasgow firm, Matthew Algie, which has revealed plans for a huge transformation after 160 years in business; notes that the coffee roaster, based just south of the city's River Clyde, was founded in 1864 and survived two World Wars; understands that the business is celebrating its longevity with a multi-million pound transformation of its factory; further understands that the factory, with a team of over 400 employees, is now complete with its own pallet-packing robot and other state-of-the-art technology in a bid to become more eco-friendly; believes that Matthew Algie is a company, which prides itself on eco-friendly practices and that it aims to achieve net zero carbon emissions by 2040, and understands that the multi-million-pound investment is not just about enhancing the company’s operations but about revolutionising how it produces its coffees.
