THE manufacture of Waterford Crystal products is to resume in the brand’s spiritual home in June, with nearly 100 permanent jobs being created as a result, the company’s new owner has announced.

THE rebranded Waterford Wedgwood group is targeting a 10% increase in sales in its upcoming financial year, following 12 months of production declines since coming out of receivership.

Crystal manufacturing is set to make a comeback in Waterford, albeit on a smaller scale.
