AN Inverclyde-based welder has successfully launched his first business during Covid-19 following specialist start-up support and advice from Business Gateway.

Working closely with Business Gateway, Gregor accessed a wide range of specialist start-up support. This included help securing business insurance, marketing advice and one-to-one support on his business plan.
