This week we speak to Alistair Fell, of Dalbeattie-based Iron & Pine about how the business he co-founded with school friend Luke Mazs, converting shipping containers into offices and wedding venues, has rapidly grown - from starting out operating in a friend's hay shed to employing over 20 skilled people in Dumfries & Galloway.
Alistair discusses how Iron & Pine have embraced Fair Work and circular economy, challenges of recruiting staff in a rural location, advice for budding entrepreneurs and their ambitions to help tackle housing issues in the South.
