"Our products deliver high recycle and content rates, which support customer sustainability targets and contribute to a circular economy. This latest expansion at Winston-Salem is indicative of Ardagh's consistent commitment to supporting customer growth." The North Carolina Department of Commerce led a team of partners in supporting Ardagh's decision to expand in North Carolina. The new positions will include operations, production, and administrative personnel. "With the largest and most diverse manufacturing workforce in the Southeast, North Carolina has proven to be a great place for Ardagh to expand their operations," said Commerce Secretary Machelle Baker Sanders. "Ardagh's confidence in North Carolina highlights our ability to support innovative companies with a diverse talent pipeline, a strong business climate and a convenient location." A performance-based grant of $250,000 from the One North Carolina Fund will help facilitate Ardagh's expansion.
