Greiner Packaging Announce Expansion
Enterprise Minister Arlene Foster has announced a £2.2million expansion by Greiner Packaging Ltd. at Dungannon that plans to create 10 new jobs.
The Minister announced the investment in state-of-the-art In-Mould Labelling (IML) technology during a visit to the Austrian owned company.
Arlene Foster said: "This investment of £2.2 million is a testament to the vision of the company in continually introducing new technology and manufacturing processes that is enabling it to meet market demand for his packaging expertise especially from major customers in food processing.
"Invest Northern Ireland has offered over £200,000 towards the project which will also create 10 new jobs for Dungannon in addition to the 210 already employed by this progressive international company. The scale of the investment by the Greiner Group is evidence of the quality and calibre of the Northern Ireland operation and speaks volumes on its ability to deliver in challenging economic times.
"The company is also an important player within the local food industry especially the dairy sector and is positioned to make an even greater contribution as the industry continues to grow from the expansion projected by companies in the recently published agri-food strategy 'Going for Growth – Investing in Success'."
