🥃 Terberg's Journey Through the Isle of Jura: A Unique Collaboration in Installing the Jura Distillery's Biomass Plant 🗣️ When you want a new boiler, you hope it will be easier than this mammoth job. When the world-famous Isle of Jura Distillery wanted a biomass boiler fitted, a team of experts swung into action to make this seemingly impossible task a reality. With the expert help of Ferguson Transport & Shipping, a new temporary ferry route was established to move vehicles and equipment into place. A new slipway was built, and miles of roads were protected from damage caused by the heavy equipment. Finally, the boiler was delivered, and after the work was completed, everything was removed, allowing the pristine Island of Jura to return to its tranquil norm. TERBERG DTS (UK) LIMITED and Ferguson Transport & Shipping have had a long-standing relationship, so we were delighted to see our Terberg tractors playing an important role in the operation. The Island of Jura holds a special place in our Managing Director’s heart, as this is where he was brought up as a child and still regularly visits to this day. 🎥 Ferguson Transport & Shipping captured this stunning scenic footage of the journey through the Isle of Jura. #TerbergDTS #Terberg #Scotland #Logistics #Transport #Jura #IsleofJura #Whiskey

Alasdair Ferguson, Group Managing Director, and honorary member of the Rotary Club of Lochaber was invited to speak at the Club’s weekly lunch meeting last month. Alasdair was delighted to have been invited and was very happy to deliver a presentation on Ferguson Transport & Shipping, its journey and how far the Company has come over the last 65 years and how in 2008, Kishorn Port Ltd was created, a joint venture with Leiths Scotland Ltd for the further regeneration of the Kishorn Port & Dry Dock facilities, once used for the construction of the Ninian Central oil and gas concrete gravity base structure which was built in the mid-70s at the yard. We look forward to sponsoring the Santa’s reindeer parade again this year as part of their Christmas Festival. #fergusontransport #kishornport #leithsscotland #rotarycluboflochaber
