In Nov 2019, WuXi Vaccines announced 240 million USD investment to build the new vaccine manufacturing facility in Ireland. The facility is located within the WuXi Biologics Campus adjacent to the "Factory of the Future" biologics drug substance manufacturing facility which is scheduled for commercial manufacturing in 2021.
"This is a historic moment for WuXi Vaccines as well as for the global vaccine industry. Due to process complexity, extensive analytic testing and rigorous regulatory standards, vaccines are difficult to manufacture and process and quality control are extremely critical for the quality of the product. This partnership with a global vaccine leader to exclusively manufacture a vaccine for the global market, first of its kind in the industry, is a further testimony to the technical strengths and premier quality demonstrated by WuXi Vaccines," commented Dr. Chris Chen, Chairman of WuXi Vaccines, "WuXi Vaccines will provide our global partners with a robust and premier-quality supply chain network to produce high quality vaccines to protect human being globally."
