Nestled within a secure 27-acre fenced area, the main production facility is part of a total site that spans 154 acres. This location is in Annan, Scotland, just 85 miles from both Edinburgh and Glasgow, and boasts stunning views of the coastline and the peaks of the Lake District across the water.

This facility, equipped with state-of-the-art machinery for API (Active Pharmaceutical Ingredient) production, is a highly valuable asset for buyers worldwide. The sale includes all manufacturing equipment, laboratory apparatus, processing systems, quality control labs, and supporting infrastructure, providing a comprehensive turnkey solution for pharmaceutical companies aiming to boost their production capabilities.

Commitment to Sustainability and Recycling

In line with Maynards‘ dedication to sustainability, the sale of this equipment presents an excellent opportunity to recycle and repurpose high-quality industrial assets. By acquiring well-maintained, used equipment in excellent condition, buyers can significantly reduce the need for new manufacturing, minimize environmental impact, and shorten lead times for acquiring new machinery.

"This project perfectly aligns with our partnership’s core values of environmental responsibility and sustainable redevelopment," said Daniel Gray. "By repurposing existing assets and embracing eco-friendly practices, we are creating value for our customers and contributing to a more sustainable future."

Many of the facility’s machines have been meticulously maintained, ensuring a smooth transition for the new owner without compromising on quality or functionality. This recycling and repurposing effort supports the broader industry’s goals of enhancing environmental stewardship and reducing the carbon footprint of global manufacturing operations.

The Annan Pharmaceutical project follows the success of the Avara API facility, a 100-acre site previously handled by Maynards and Divestiture, where over 250,000 tonnes of material were successfully recycled.

Local Job Creation and Economic Benefits

"This facility has long been a cornerstone of local manufacturing," said Gray. "The sale of its assets and the potential for repurposing the buildings present an exciting opportunity to rejuvenate the local economy. We’ve already seen significant interest from potential occupiers looking to create high-quality jobs and bring employment back to the area. This sale offers a chance to revitalize the facility while preserving the region’s strong legacy of industrial excellence".
