Glanbia to extend in Offaly and Tipperary

Glanbia meats is extending its facilities in Edenderry, Co Offaly and Roscrea in Tipperary.

It follows the decision not to rebuild the plant at Roosky in Co Roscommon, which was devastated by fire last year. 340 people worked there before the fire.

However, the cannery facility is being retained. The expanded processing activities in Roscrea and Edenderry will lead to the creation of an extra 150 jobs in those plants.
