Teeing off: Ryder Cup buggy business opens
MTS Nationwide’s golf and utilities division plans to have its depot at Cumbernauld open by late spring following an expansion of its partnership with Club Car, a manufacturer of small, zero emissions electric vehicles and official supplier to the 2014 Ryder Cup.
The equipment hire group is establishing its Scottish facility with the help of a £500,000 funding package from Clydesdale Bank’s sister organisation Yorkshire Bank.
