30 New Delcath Jobs The First Of Many For Galway
Labour T.D. for Galway West, Derek Nolan has said today's announcement that 30 jobs will be created by Delcath Systems in Galway paves the way for a significant manufacturing and services hub for the company in Galway. The announcement was made today by Tánaiste Eamon Gilmore at the company's facility in Mervue.
"Delcath are currently establishing their EU headquarters in Galway with 30 jobs announced. Today, the Tánaiste and I met with CEO Eamonn Hobbs and it is clear that this announcement is the first stage of a much larger plan for Galway.
"Delcath's new product, an innovative way of treating liver cancer has accreditation worldwide, except for the USA where the application is still being processed. That means that Galway will not only be the EU hub, but the worldwide hub exporting to markets like Canada and Australia.
"The exciting potential is that as the facility develops in Galway, it is anticipated to move greater manufacturing jobs to the Galway plant. This will provide a broad array of jobs from medical, engineering, administration and manufacturing. It is also hoped that this innovative approach to cancer treatment can be expanded to organs other than the liver and that these products can be developed in Galway. The long term commitment to Galway offers huge potential for medium and long term significant job creation.
"The Tánaiste has taken a great personal interest in this company, having visited their New York headquarters last year. He insisted that any support he could offer to the company would be forthcoming and fullsome.
"Galway has seen in excess of 1200 jobs announced so far this year, surging ahead of the national average. The IDA have calculated that for every 10 jobs directly created, 7 follow in the local domestic economy. While unemployment remains too high in Galway, these announcements show that Galway has a real and bright future as a location for investment which in turn helps local businesses."
