US multi-national Keurig Dr Pepper said it is firmly "on track" to open its new manufacturing plant in Newbridge before the end of the year, despite Covid-19 restrictions on the construction industry.
The company behind over 100 brands such as 7Up and Canada Dry is converting a former Lidl warehouse in Great Connell Business Park in a project worth more than €2m.
Around 50 people have been hired and the company said it was impressed with the calibre of local candidates applying for positions.
A company spokesperson said: “We’re on track to open our beverage concentrate facility in Newbridge during the second half of 2021.”
