Five months after merging, manufacturers Kindeva Drug Delivery and Meridian Medical Technologies are expanding their capabilities in Missouri.
In a $100 million investment over four years, Meridian plans to convert its newly purchased building in Bridgeton to increase production of drug-device combination products with added fill-finish capability, the companies said.
Since adding 300 jobs since the start of 2022, Meridian now employs more than 900 people in the St. Louis area, the companies said. Financial incentives from state and local municipalities are helping this investment, which was announced in a press release that included quotes from seven different government officials.
“Meridian brings a strong history of specific expertise to support critical manufacturing capabilities for complex products—addressing a manufacturing shortage we have seen increase over the last several years,” Milton Boyer, Meridian’s CEO who now heads up both companies, said in the release.
