Scottish soft drinks manufacturer AG Barr is reported to be planning to extend its presence still further south of the border by building a new £40 million bottling and distribution centre in England. AG Barr currently operates factories at Cumbernauld, Dunbar and Forfar in Scotland along with a production site at Tredegar in South Wales. In addition to its flagship Irn-Bru brand, the company’s portfolio includes Orangina, Strathmore, Tizer and Rubicon, which AG Barr acquired for £60 million in 2008 to enter the UK fruit juice market.
