Funding Support for Rowan Glen

A Dumfries & Galloway yogurt production plant which reopened a year ago has been supported by South of Scotland Enterprise to take the next sustainable step forward with its operations.

Rowan Glen have been awarded over £142,000 from our Net Zero Accelerator Fund towards the purchase and installation of a cream separator and cooling and storage facility.

What will the new facility do?

  • The technology will allow the business - which is based at Palnure near Newton Stewart - to produce its own cream on site from locally sourced milk.
  • This will allow Rowan Glen to significantly reduce the amount of plastic and paper packaging used and decrease the freight miles incurred by the company.
  • This in turn will mean Rowan Glen can supply more products to their clients, more efficiently and economically.
