US Firms Announce Limerick Jobs Boost
Seventy-five new jobs are to be created in Limerick, thanks to investments by two US firms.
Vistakon Inc, a division of Johnson & Johnson, is to invest €100 million in expanding its manufacturing operations, which already employs 600 people at its state-of-the-art facility in the National Technology Park, adjacent to the University of Limerick.
The expansion means that 60 new jobs will be created at the site, in manufacturing, process development, engineering and quality.
Meanwhile, ChannelAdvisor Corporation, which provides e-commerce channel management solutions and services for internet retailers, are also to create 15 jobs with the establishment of a European product development and business support centre in Limerick.
