A nightclub business in Lanarkshire has entered administration following problems caused by flood damage.
The group of clubs in the town, including Sugar Sugar, 30 Something, The Edge and Level 2, were operated under the Centrepoint Venues name and its subsidiary Merlin McFlys.

The company is a well-regarded specialist provider of hygienic wall, floor, and ceiling cladding systems. To complement its core supply of PVC cladding, the business offers hot welded joints to prevent the build-up of bacteria and can supply stainles...
