06/20/2016
Dexcom, Inc., a leader in continuous glucose monitoring for patients with diabetes will construct a new state of the art manufacturing facility in Mesa, Arizona. The facility will support the company's growing continuous glucose monitoring business.

“This new, 180,000 square foot facility will support the company's global manufacturing operations and is projected to create more than 500 jobs over the next several years. We expect initial manufacturing operations in this facility to commence in the second quarter of 2017,” company officials said.

"We are thrilled to locate our new state of the art manufacturing facility in the greater Phoenix area where the healthcare industry is seeing accelerated growth," said Kevin Sayer, President/CEO of Dexcom.

"We chose Mesa due to the available, talented workforce, in addition to the proximity to our headquarters in San Diego and our key suppliers. Given our company's growth, and the growing demand for CGM technology, we felt that a significant expansion of our manufacturing capability in this location was a good strategic fit,” he added.
