I’ve built up a loyal customer base, which is still growing today. I now also attend major regional events all over the UK. “Business has grown well and I have had to invest heavily to keep up with ever changing trends. I will always be grateful to Great Taste and the Gloucester Quays team for the start they gave me and very much hope to work alongside them for many years to come.” Visit the Gloucester Quays website Our impact, your stories Meet the people who have become part of our investment journey Chris Farmakis Airport Fireman I’ve learnt many life skills and gone down a route that I never would have imagined. 1 2 3 4 5 6 EXPLORE ALL STORIES Contact us Privacy Policy © Peel Group 2018 Web Design Manchester by Drumbeat and Carbon Creative

Retired fireman and vintage vehicle enthusiast Bob James, started out as a volunteer at the former transport museum and has been a full-time volunteer at the new Riverside Museum since day one. “Glasgow people are museum goers. From the late 1800s there have been museums in the city, and visiting them was a big part of our childhood. Today, there’s a sense of nostalgia when you visit here, evoking memories of days long gone. “The Clyde is synonymous with ship building and in it’s heyday the shipyards here would finish an ocean-bound ship every other day. Most shipyards produced ship models and we have a wonderful collection of model ships including the Queen Elizabeth, Queen Mary and Queen Elizabeth 2, from matchbox size to over four metres long. If we didn’t have this wonderful facility then a piece of our heritage could have been lost forever. “I might not get paid for it, but I always say I have the best job in the world.” Visit the Glasgow Harbour website Our impact, your stories Meet the people who have become part of our investment journey Chris Farmakis Airport Fireman I’ve learnt many life skills and gone down a route that I never would have imagined. 1 2 3 4 5 6 EXPLORE ALL STORIES Contact us Privacy Policy © Peel Group 2018 Web Design Manchester by Drumbeat and Carbon Creative
