Friday, June 6th, 2014
A biopharmaceutical manufacturer rooted in North Augusta is expanding its workforce and operations to keep pace with an increased market demand.
AmbioPharm Inc., a contract peptide producer for drug companies across the country, is investing $5 million to double its manufacturing operations and boost the staff by about 20 employees by this fall, said Robert Geiger, the company’s vice president of quality.
Six employees have been hired, and AmbioPharm is looking to fill the remaining positions, which range basic manufacturing jobs to entry-level chemists and management personnel. The company’s 10,000-square-foot facility in North Augusta’s industrial park will expand to about 18,000 square feet.
