FABIANI CONGRATULATES EAST KILBRIDE COMPANY SHORTLISTED FOR TOP ENVIRONMENTAL AWARD

Linda Fabiani MSP has written to Robert Wiseman Jr, managing director of East Kilbride-based Robert Wiseman Dairies to congratulate him on the company being shortlisted for the highly sought-after Vision in Business for the Environment of Scotland (VIBES) Awards, which are given to Scottish companies which demonstrate the business benefits of environmental best practice.

Robert Wiseman Dairies’ headquarters in East Kilbride is one of forty shortlisted nominees to be narrowed down to eight winners, who will receive their awards from Environment Minister Roseanna Cunningham at a ceremony in the Scottish Parliament on 28 November.

The VIBES awards are now in their tenth year and are regarded as a signifier of the very best environmental practices in business.

Ms Fabiani, whose home constituency is East Kilbride, said:

“It is great news for East Kilbride that a local business is amongst those setting the standards for green business practices in Scotland.

“I hope that other local businesses will be inspired by Wiseman Dairies’ example in adopting good environmental practice and enter the VIBES awards in future years.

“I congratulate all those at Robert Wiseman Dairies who have worked for this achievement and wish them the very best of luck at the awards ceremony on 28 November.”
