Glasgow bakery Mortons Rolls is to restart production on Sunday (19 March) after the business was bought out of administration.

Mortons has been bought by investors PVL after talks with HMRC, administrators, and the Scottish government.

About 110 workers – nearly half of the previous workforce – are being recalled immediately after being made redundant earlier this week.

PVL representative John McIlvogue told the BBC: “None of us wanted the past couple of weeks to unfold in the way that they have, but it has been entirely outwith our control.

“The important thing now is that Mortons is back in action, we’ve got the workforce back on the production line, and we’re ready to start producing our famous rolls that the good people of Glasgow have been crying out for.”
