In a press release, the Inverness-based company said the name changes highlight its aim to demonstrate its ability to provide end-to-end product and service supply to the aquaculture sector. Fusion and Corpach will also adopt new Gael Force-style logos to demonstrate the integral part both business units form within the group.

The businesses were acquired last year. Gael Force said they have since been working together within the larger group, accelerating the development of new innovative projects and conducting research and development in order to deliver better value for its customer base. 

Gael Force said it has started the year by undertaking its largest ever recruitment drive, with up to 40 new positions being required over a range of job roles. The jobs are spread across a number of locations which include Oban and Corpach, as well as Inverness and Forres, where various roles and a range of skillsets are currently being sought. The company said the primary driver for increasing its workforce is greater customer demand for its range of aquaculture equipment, including offshore pens, concrete and steel feed barges, and marine technology systems.

Group marketing manager Marc Wilson said: “Both companies have been an excellent fit within the Group, sharing in the common values we believe to be vital in achieving our vision and mission, and ultimately enabling us to provide our customers with a first-class competitive product offering. 

“Both workforces have been utterly commendable in their motivation and willingness to integrate as part of a bigger team – a huge credit goes to those colleagues. 

“We are all very much united in our approach and therefore the changing of names and adoption of new logos is the natural next step to take.”

Gael Force currently employs more than 225 people across the UK, with the majority of staff based in Highlands and Islands.
