This morning.
Pfizer has announced that it will begin using its west Dublin facility ‘as part of its supply chain’ for its Covid-19 vaccine. Up to $40m will be invested at Grange Castle (top) with 75 new jabs jobs.
In a statement, the pharma giant said:
“…Pfizer is now bringing on additional European-based facility to be a part of the global Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 Vaccine supply chain network and Grange Castle (Ireland) will contribute to the worldwide supply of the vaccine.
“Pfizer’s Grange Castle facility will produce mRNA drug substance. Given the extensive technical transfer process, on-site development, equipment installation and regulatory approvals needed for the sites, we expect both facilities will be brought by the end of 2021.”
