DELI-LITES Ireland is expanding its headquarters in Warrenpoint, creating 20 new full time jobs.
The food-to-go company secured a £250,000 investment to develop a new innovation hub and deliver major refurbishments at its Warrenpoint site.
The innovation hub will be used for product-development workshops and demonstrations with clients, showcasing the company's growing product range.
Speaking about the recent investment, CEO, Brian Reid, said: "As a chef-led business which is focused on constantly developing new and exciting products and flavour combinations, innovation is at the heart of everything we do. This latest investment highlights our commitment to continued growth and development, and our emphasis on client-focused servicing, which we believe has helped us grow and become a trusted supplier to so many customers.
"Utilising the skills of our product development team, we work in partnership with our clients to create products which deliver specifically for their needs. The innovation hub gives us the space to expand this process and allows our customers to get a real feel for the retail experience and product offering, which can be adapted to appeal to all tastes and dietary requirements, including vegan, dairy free, low carb, high protein and gluten free.
"We're excited about the next phase in the business, which is only possible thanks to the great team right across the organisation, from production operatives to delivery drivers. It's this commitment to our people and their continued hard work which will enable us to maximise the hub's potential and deliver even more award-winning products, use ingredients from trusted local suppliers, to a global customer base."
This announcement comes as DELI-LITES Ireland prepares to expand into new international markets with export orders currently in the pipeline to Germany, Holland, and the Middle East.
