HALO Urban Regeneration is a Scottish business innovation park, urban regeneration and business start-up support company, founded, based and headquartered in Kilmarnock, East Ayrshire, Scotland. The HALO Urban Regeneration was founded by entrepreneur Marie Macklin CBE in 2006 as HALO Urban Regeneration Company Ltd., having announced the project a few years prior to official funding and creation of the HALO Kilmarnock.
The HALO building on Hill Street, Kilmarnock, is a £63 million brownfield urban regeneration project constructed on a 23-acre site, formerly the home of Johnnie Walker, the world’s leading Scotch whisky brand that was founded in Kilmarnock in 1820 and operated on the site until Diageo closed the Kilmarnock plant in 2012.
HALO is projected to generate £205 million to the economy of Scotland and stimulate 1,500 jobs.
