Wales’ leading soft drinks company has invested millions of pounds in new office and production facilities as part of ambitious expansion plans. Radnor Hills hopes to increase production capacity and create 30 new jobs following the investment at its headquarters in Knighton, Powys.
The expansion includes 17,000 sq ft in new office space, at a cost of £2.5m, and £4.5m on a new glass filling line at its 300,000 sq ft factory.
Founder and managing director William Watkins said the investment was the result of Radnor’s organic growth with profits generated reinvested into the business. "We’re investing in our buildings, equipment, staff and energy source. To run a site like this it’s multi-dimensional. Investment needs to be put into all different sides of the business so that we can grow and meet our sustainability targets."
