About Galashiels

From an unusual place comes an unusual point of view

People are often curious why we chose Scotland as our home base. While Scotland conjures up images of castles and kilts, whisky and golf, clans and curious culinary fare, it’s also a world of opportunity and achievement.

Our company headquarters are in Galashiels, a vibrant commercial center set in the midst of the Scottish Borders area with a history dating back to 1124. From this amazing and inspired locale, we are able to achieve extraordinary things.

Here we gain a unique perspective that we are able to infuse throughout the company. We’re proud to be from Scotland. Even more so, we’re proud of what we can accomplish.
