John McRobbie (Atomak Products)
From Graces Guide
John McRobbie (Atomak Products) Ltd. of Crieff, Perthshire
1964 The company was established by brothers John and George McRobbie. The McRobbie family were said to have been in business locally since 1786, initially as housebuilders and joiners. Their previous location in Crieff, Tomaknock, inspired them to adapt the name for their new firm and thus created Atomak Products. Their self-dumping hoppers were successful in New Zealand, where they were manufactured under licence. With George McRobbie seeking to retire, the factory was sold to be a warehouse for Crieff Cash and Carry in 1987.[1]
