Ceteris, a leading provider of commercial spaces and business support in the Forth Valley, marked its 40th anniversary with a special tree planting event, planting 40 trees for 40 years to celebrate the company’s milestone and contribute to the Forth Climate Forest initiative. This event is the latest in a series of celebrations marking the company’s 40th birthday, following a high-profile parliamentary event hosted by Keith Brown MSP in January at the Scottish Parliament.
The event was held on Friday 21st March and saw Ceteris staff, partners, and tenants come together to plant trees at their e-Centre business centre in Alloa. Staff from Stirling and Falkirk joined throughout the afternoon with each attendee having the opportunity to plant their own tree. The trees were supplied by the Forth Climate Forest initiative, which is managed by Scotland’s International Environment Centre at the University of Stirling. The overarching goal of the Forth Climate Forest is to plant 16 million trees by 2033, helping to improve climate resilience in the region, enhance local biodiversity, and improve the natural environment.
“Planting these 40 trees is a small but significant way for Ceteris to contribute to the long-term sustainability of our local community and the wider Forth Valley,”
said Josie Saunders, CEO at Ceteris.
“These trees will leave a lasting legacy, not only marking our 40 years but also pointing to the future and the next 40 years of Ceteris. As a company that has been a part of this community for four decades, it’s important for us to support initiatives like the Forth Climate Forest, which directly align with our values of sustainability, environmental responsibility, and being good for business and the planet.”
“We are proud of our team’s dedication to this initiative, and it’s heartening to see so many staff members participate in making a tangible difference,” added Josie.
The tree planting event is part of Ceteris’ ongoing commitment to sustainability and the company’s values of being both good for business and the planet. It follows other activities as part of the company’s 40th birthday celebrations, including the parliamentary event in January, which brought together key leaders from across the public, private, and third sectors to discuss the future of business and economic growth in Scotland.
