Sanmina Corporation (“Sanmina”) (NASDAQ: SANM), a Fortune 500 company and leading global provider of integrated electronic manufacturing solutions, today announced an expansion of its Fermoy medical facility in North Cork. The investment is expected to create up to 150 highly skilled new jobs, with recruitment already underway.
The completed facility expansion will be opened today by An Taoiseach Micheál Martin. The operation in Fermoy dates back to the site’s opening in 1989. Since then, it has grown to become Sanmina’s largest medical facility in Europe. The expansion to the site is expected to further enhance Sanmina’s capabilities for the finished medical device market, reinforcing Ireland’s role as a leading hub for medical technology manufacturing.
The site includes advanced manufacturing capabilities, and its first new automation line is already installed and being commissioned. The expansion will also include a new ISO8 clean room and several high-volume automation lines dedicated to producing wearable medical devices.
Attending this event, Taoiseach Micheál Martin, said “I am delighted to visit Sanmina today as they officially open this expanded facility with the creation of up to 150 new jobs in Fermoy. Sanmina has been part of the community in Fermoy since 1989, home to its largest medical facility in Europe. This expansion is a strong vote of confidence in the skills, talent and ability of the workforce in Cork and beyond, and of Ireland’s continued attractiveness as a destination for international investment and a global leader in medical technology innovation.”
Minister for Enterprise Tourism & Employment Peter Burke said “Sanmina’s continued investment in Fermoy is a strong vote of confidence in Ireland’s advanced manufacturing sector and in our skilled workforce. The creation of up to 150 new jobs will have a significant impact on the local economy and further strengthens Ireland’s position as a global leader in medical technology innovation. I thank Sanmina for their long-standing commitment to the region and wish the team the very best with this expansion."
Sean Moran, SVP of IMS Europe at Sanmina, said “This expansion underscores Sanmina’s long-term commitment to Fermoy and to Ireland as a centre of excellence for medical technology manufacturing. For over 36 years, our Fermoy site has been driven by exceptional talent and a strong culture of innovation and quality. That combination has been central to our success and to supporting the growth of our customers in the global medical device marketplace while creating high-quality employment and opportunity in the region.”
