A Cemmaes Road concrete plant has been bought and reopened by a family-owned Shropshire firm, safeguarding three jobs and with possible expansion to create two new jobs.
The plant, which was previously owned by Hanson, has been acquired by TG Concrete, which is part of the Tudor Griffiths Group.
General manager Dave Morris said: “We’re very pleased to be taking on the Cemmaes Road plant which was built in 1966 and which has been closed for some time.
“It’s in an excellent position midway between two of our other plants at Aberystwyth and Newtown, so it will help to boost our presence in mid Wales.”
A spokesperson for TG Concrete has confirmed that three jobs will be retained at the plant and that there is potential to expand it in the “near future” to create a further two jobs.
