01/25/2025
Germany-based pharmaceutical manufacturer Groninger USA plans to expand its operations in Charlotte, North Carolina. The $15.1 million project is expected to create 60 jobs.

The company's 27,500-square-foot Mecklenburg County facility handles sales, service, and parts manufacturing for customers in the U.S., Canada, and Mexico.

“Charlotte has been an outstanding home for our North American headquarters, and as our company grows, so does our need for additional space and talented employees,” said groninger USA CEO Philipp Hauser. “With its strategic location and world-class airport, Charlotte provides seamless connections to our customers and our parent company in Germany. Its thriving German community and strong workforce, as well as the invaluable partnerships we’ve developed here, make Charlotte an exceptional place for our headquarters, and we look forward to continuing our strong collaboration with the City and Mecklenburg County.”

This project was a collaborative effort between the City of Charlotte, Mecklenburg County, Economic Department Partnership of North Carolina (EDPNC), NC Community Colleges and the North Carolina Department of Commerce.

"Groninger’s expansion is an opportunity to create jobs in a variety of fields in our community. We are proud to foster an environment where local companies like groninger can be competitive,” noted Mecklenburg Board of County Commissioners Chair Mark Jerrell. “The company’s track record of diversity and inclusion in the workplace, partnerships with our schools, colleges and universities, and support for Mecklenburg County priorities sets a strong example."

Groninger manufactures filling and closing machines for the pharmaceutical, healthcare and cosmetics industries.
