Turning 70 Years Young Was A Year to Remember!
As we reflect on our 70th anniversary year – April 24th 2024, we must first mention how overwhelmed with gratitude we were, for the incredible support and recognition we received throughout this milestone year.
From heartfelt congratulations from our loyal customers, partners and local communities to the wide coverage in so many publications and digital platforms across Scotland, we were and are truly humbled.
We agreed an important sponsorship deal with Moray Rugby Club and were so happy when Graham Stables of the club agreed to unveil our 70th plaque at the Elgin Headquarters to celebrate.
We proudly showcased our “70 Years of Fuelling Excellence” theme across the agricultural shows we attended – celebrating our deep roots in the farming and rural community.
A true highlight for the whole company was the unforgettable 70th anniversary celebration at the Macdonald Aviemore Resort, brilliantly organised by The Moray Chamber of Commerce. A special thanks to Sarah and Aimee – your support has meant the world to us since winning the prestigious business award in September 2023, recognising our contribution to the local economy.
Our commitment to our customers remains unwavering. We continue to engage with, support, and grow alongside the individuals and organisations that matter most to us. This year, we placed a strong emphasis on enhancing our digital capabilities, including the implementation of a new software system, CODAS, the launch of an updated website – Strut Digital, and the introduction of a new customer web portal. These initiatives are designed to provide a seamless and efficient experience, enabling our customers to connect with us anytime, anywhere in today’s fast-paced environment.
Looking ahead, Gleaner is investing in a sustainable future. We’ve added new heating oil and LPG tankers to our fleet and completed a full refurbishment at our Connel depot – with upgraded fuel storage for Kerosene, Gas Oil, Derv and Petrol. These improvements ensure we can better serve our Domestic, Commercial, Agricultural, and Retail customers across Scotland.
It’s hard to believe how quickly the year has flown by, but in this short space of time, we’ve accomplished so much that we’re truly proud of. From key developments that enhance the experience for our customers, to initiatives that support and empower our staff, and strengthened collaborations with our partners, every step has been taken with a clear focus on creating meaningful, lasting impact. Reflecting on the progress we’ve made, it’s clear that the momentum we’ve built is setting a strong foundation for the future.
We are today, proud to celebrate 71 remarkable years, with exciting plans and a bold vision for the continued growth and success of Gleaner Ltd.
