for the company and a significant boost for the Newry region. The
investment and creation of 16 high-quality jobs will support
economic development in the area and aligns with my ambition for
a regionally balanced economy.
“Introducing advanced automation and machinery onsite
will not only enhance the company's productivity but boost its
competitiveness and export footprint on a global scale. I am
particularly pleased this new investment will include
environmentally sustainable features to reduce the company's
carbon emissions which aligns with our decarbonisation goal of
achieving net zero.”
