A €4 refurbishment of Bays 135 and 137 is now underway in the Shannon Free Zone.

Shannon Group commenced work on its first major construction project of 2022 on Tuesday. It will see two existing buildings located to the MeiraGTx facility refurbished at a cost of €4m. July 2022 has been set as the target for completion.

100 jobs will be created during the construction and fit-put phase of the project with Ennis-based Jada Construction appointed as the main contractor.

With a combined square footage of 33,000 sq. ft, the refurbishment of these buildings will create high spec, fully fitted out multi-purpose office space and light engineering facilities. The exterior aesthetics of the buildings will be finished in a similar architectural style to the MeiraGTx building which was previously undertaken by Shannon Group.

Included in the development are the provision of 140 upgraded / new car parking spaces with seven dedicated disabled spaces and four Electric Vehicle charging spaces. It also includes the upgrade of footpaths, public lighting and landscaping in the area around the buildings.

CEO of Shannon Group, Mary Considine said it is “full steam ahead” for the company. “Despite the challenge our business has faced throughout the pandemic, we have continued to improve our customer facilities and offering. This is why it’s full steam ahead with our 2022 property development strategy for our Shannon Campus, providing quality property solutions to attract indigenous and FDI investment. Initiatives like this support the Government 2040 Plan and will help drive employment growth to the region”.
