200 new jobs for Waterford in Nypro

spankmemunkey

Just heard the news today, great news really great news for Waterford, 200 new jobs in Medical Device production based in the IDA Park, just accross from Whitfield wonder is that a strategic position? ha!

Very happy for Waterford today, long time coming and i hope this helps the economy and alot of families in difficulty. lets hope its the start of a new investment phase!

What I like about it is that they were here before and decided to come back. It puts pay to this bull that you get that there is something wrong with Waterford. You don’t come back to a place a second time and invest €60 million if there is something wrong with a place.

Im sure the jobs will be advertised on recruitireland or pages like that.
Yeah the jobs were suppose to be created back in 2001 or something like that, I think they have a production facility in Wexford

Investment wise there is certainly nothing wrong with Waterford. Plenty of IDA parks, proximity to a port and a great road network linked to the city. Brilliant to see investment and may there be much more to come in the future

Good news. Even better that it seems from a number of articles that the 200 figure will increase as the years go on.

I hope it gets plenty of media coverage and that in turn will lead to further investment.

Does anybody know if that IDA Park has many free units in it?

Id like 6.1 news to do a coverage of waterford and investment in waterford and the lack of it and the need for it etc etc, being one of the worst hit counties i think we need all the leg ups we can get!

I worked for them for 2 years when they were here back in the early 2000's and they were great to work for, i never had any issues with them at all!!

It was a pity to see them pack up and head to south america but it was costing them too much here compared to what they were getting it done for over there!!

delighted to hear someone is investing in Waterford

I wonder will those who were laying into to coalition for not 'doing anything for Waterford' will be as loud in their praise for their efforts to secure these jobs?

No, I thought not.

Did the government create the 200 jobs or something, i thought it was Nypro.

Well, if they are moving back into their old premises, and as was mentioned earlier, that they have a new contract with Bausch and Lomb, then I wouldn't be too confident it was much to do with the coalition, or even any other ourside organisation.

EXACTLY.

The government gets all the blame when places close, or nobody arrives, and they get no credit when places open.

With such a stupid electorate, why would you expect good government? Irish people only want easy answers.

Yup. It's Enda's fault when companies leave, and not to his credit when they arrive.

Typical Irish voter attitude.

Stanley are in the old hp chemie building and are just using the old nypro site as storage and there definitely moving out of there, so could be they're going back in there.

I wonder will they look to rehire former employees, or give them any priority?

I thought they were already accepting applications? Maybe they will come on stream gradually though.

Correct its the attitude of a voter from waterford who feels his county is being decimated and a government doing nothing but aiding its decimation with the treat over WRH, miss information to downgrade our city, moving vec office to Wexford, this is the first big jobs announcement in waterford for a long time while we saw other counties a jobs boost.
Seems to me the your beloved government are very slow to help waterford for some reason, 200 jobs today granted but still about 14,000 to create,

The problem is, twistables, that a lot of FG fanboys jump on these types of threads. Always.

He is quite good at pointing fingers at another former government party... Didn't quite do much in opposition did he? but what would I know I'm a stupid electorate, and only want easy answers/life
PS. NO Voter/FAN Of Bertie/Brian either

Getting back to Nypro how long were they here Last time in early 2000's?
Did they have a big operation?
