Sanofi is enacting a name-change at its Waterford plant, bringing in 40 new staff as it changes the site’s name from Genzyme Waterford to Sanofi Waterford.
“Since Sanofi acquired Genzyme globally in 2011, the Waterford operation has been increasingly closely-integrated within Sanofi Industrial Affairs so this is the logical next step as we plan for the future and build on the track record of achievement and growth here since 2001,” said Ruth Beadle, site head at Sanofi Waterford.
Already thought to be employing over 600 people, in 2013 €44m was put into a new campus on the south coast to increase production of its insulin product Lantus – this expansion is ongoing.
