Grant Engineering has announced a €7 million investment as part of a major expansion plan for its facilities in Co Offaly. The investment will create 50 new jobs at the Birr-based heating appliance manufacturer.

The expansion will increase the size of the current facility and will include a state-of-the-art innovation centre, a new extension to the manufacturing facility, a customer services centre and a training school. Building works will commence in the coming months with completion of the investment programme over the next two years.

Founder and Managing Director Stephen Grant said the investment will enable the company to “continue to increase capacity and expand into new markets and to develop new products.

“It also reinforces our commitment to innovation, the local community and the local economy,” he added.
