PLANS for five new buildings at Eurocentral have been approved.
Orchard Park has been given the go-ahead for a new industrial and logistics development, by North Lanarkshire Council.
Eurocentral is one of the largest industrial estates in Scotland, situated just off the M8 motorway.
Glasgow-based Tulchan Developments and its partner, logistics specialist Lumonics Developments LLP, are hoping to begin work at the site next year.

Units will be to a "high specification", each with a dedicated secure yard, and suitable for a wide range of industrial and logistics occupiers.
Colliers and Montagu Evans have been instructed to let the scheme.
Iain Davidson, director, industrial and logistics at Colliers, said: “Obtaining planning consent is a major milestone for Orchard Park.
“The development has been carefully considered to ensure it will appeal to as wide an occupier audience as possible.
“Given the shortage of industrial property availability, we expect Orchard Park to be well received by the occupier market and indeed are already in discussions with several potential tenants.”
Bryce Stewart, partner at Montagu Evans, added: “The development will deliver much-needed stock in a range of unit sizes to market-leading specifications.
“North Lanarkshire is one of Scotland’s fastest-growing economies, its transport links are first rate and set for further improvement and this is an important step forward in the growth of Scotland’s principal logistics park, which is currently 100% let.”
Occupiers already within Eurocentral currently include DPD, Amazon, Brewdog, Morrisons, Warburtons, Lidl, Next and NHS.
