Novo Nordisk to Invest USD 506 Million to Expand Oral GLP-1 Drug Manufacturing in Ireland

New Delhi: Novo Nordisk said on Monday it will invest 432 million euros (USD 506.43 million) to ‌expand ⁠its ⁠manufacturing facility in Athlone, Ireland.

"With the investment in the Athlone facility, Novo Nordisk is expanding its production capacities for oral products, which will strengthen ⁠our ability ‌to meet both current and future demand, ⁠outside the U.S.," said Novo Nordisk's head of product supply, Kasper Bodker Mejlvang, in a statement.

The investment would improve Novo Nordisk's capacity to manufacture oral ‌versions of its GLP-1 drugs, which include Wegovy ​and Ozempic, ​the ⁠company added.

The construction projects, which have already begun, will be finalised ​gradually from the end of 2027 through 2028, Novo said.
