A new €20 million McArdle Skeath facility has opened in Hollystown, Dublin, and around 100 jobs are to be created over the next year.

The supply chain facility will serve the nutritional and bio-tech sectors.

Attending the opening ceremony, Taoiseach Leo Varadkar said: "The opening of this impressive new facility is great news for Dublin 15 and I would like to congratulate McArdle Skeath for the successful expansion of their business, now in its 50th year. It is ideally located thanks to its proximity to the M50 and other major routes, as well as being very accessible to Dublin Airport. I know McArdle Skeath pride themselves on exceeding the highest standards, and I have no doubt they will take the same approach to success with this new facility. I wish all the staff and management the very best of luck."
