Shetland Analytical Services: A New Name for Expanding Horizons

Shetland-based analytical services company, formerly known as SSQC, has rebranded itself as Shetland Analytical Services to better align with its expanded range of services. This transformation comes in response to a significant uptick in business demand.

Team Growth to Meet Rising Demand

In line with its rebranding, the company is enhancing its workforce by 30%. This expansion includes the addition of two laboratory technicians, two analysts, and a laboratory assistant, reflecting a commitment to quality and timely service.

A Commitment to Quality

These changes speak volumes about the company’s confidence in its growth trajectory. Shetland Analytical Services is dedicated to delivering high-quality specialist microbiology, chemistry, and water quality testing services to its broadened client base.

Words from the Managing Director

Steven Laidlaw, Managing Director, expressed his enthusiasm about the new direction:

“We’re delighted to now be known as Shetland Analytical Services. Shetland Seafood Quality Control – SSQC – was rooted in the seafood sector, particularly focused on the aquaculture industry. Today, our business has evolved to cater to a much wider UK market that requires a variety of microbiology, chemistry, and water quality testing. The new name reflects that.”

“As we expand our team, it’s essential to have the right expertise and capacity to uphold the very high standards and timely testing that our clients expect. The new roles represent high-quality, skilled employment opportunities, providing valuable jobs for talented professionals in Shetland.”

Expanding Reach Across Regions

In addition to a rebranding and team enhancement, Shetland Analytical Services is working to overcome logistical challenges related to time-sensitive testing. This effort aims to provide efficient services to customers throughout the North East of Scotland.

Conclusion

The transition to Shetland Analytical Services signifies a strategic shift in the company’s identity and service offerings. With a skilled workforce and a commitment to high standards, the organization is poised for continued success in the analytical services sector.
