Scotia opened its first office in Glasgow in 1963 selling accounting machines under the name of Scotia office Machines Limited. Throughout the 60's and 70's, Scotia's bread and butter encompassed the supply of accounting machines and everyday stationery products. By the end of the 70's the firm had begun its move into technology based hardware products such as dictation equipment and overhead projectors.
The 80's saw the company focus increasingly switch onto visual presentation solutions - installing equipment in a number of schools, universities and large boardrooms. By 1990 the company name was changed to Scotia UK plc and a push was made south of the border with the opening of a distribution centre in Gateshead and an additional office in Suffolk.
This year marks 45 years in business and the Scotia focus is now on delivering innovative presentation technology solutions to a wide and diverse range of clients. As the company continues to go from strength to strength it looks forward to the new challenges which lie ahead in the 21st century.
