My brother Phillip will also continue to be a key member of staff.” Mike Harker said. “I have known Mick Boyle and Abergeldie for around 7 years and I have no doubt we will work well together and Abergeldie Harker will be very good for our employees and our clients and continue our Father’s legacy.”
“Abergeldie is excited to now own Abergeldie Harker with Mike Harker. Harker has a strong reputation built over 30 years, good equipment and very capable people.
