Description
A manufacturer of soft drinks located near Bedale in North Yorkshire has announced plans to create up to 100 new jobs due to expansion of its plant. Production and engineering roles will be among those created as a result of the expansion. The company was only established in 2010 and prior to this announcement employed 105 workers.
Expansion of the site where the current factory is located will include installation of two additional production lines. Completion of the new production lines is due to be fully operational by the end of 2015. New warehouses, a new mixing area, facilties for staff, offices and loading areas will also be built on the site. The company is reportedly one of the fastest growing manufacturing companies in the UK.
