American Firm To Create Up To 95 Jobs In L'Derry
An American packaging firm has announced it is to create up to 95 jobs in Co L'Derry.
Bemis is establishing a new European Business Service Centre in Campsie and the new jobs are to be created over the next five years.
The new posts will be in finance and IT.
Invest NI CEO Alastair Hamilton said: "A number of other locations were considered for this project, but as a result of the collaborative efforts of Invest NI and Derry City & Strabane District Council, we successfully pitched the city as an attractive investment location.
"The company has been offered £695,000 of government support towards the recruitment of the new jobs and a pre-employment training programme delivered by North West Regional College which will provide Bemis with a pool of business ready candidates."
Marty Scaminaci, Bemis Company's Vice President of Global Business Services said: "Establishing our European Business Services Centre in Londonderry is a strategic investment to help drive efficiencies and standardise our processes. We have successfully operated a manufacturing facility in Northern Ireland since 1996, and know it to be a great location to do business.
"The availability of skilled graduates in the area, engagement of local council representatives, and the support offered from Invest NI were all critical factors in our decision to locate this centre in Northern Ireland."
