Morrisville, N.C.
Andrx Corp. has awarded O’Neal Inc. of Greenville, S.C., the contract to renovate the first 70,000 sf of a 480,000-sf Morrisville, N.C., manufacturing facility that Andrx acquired from Bristol-Myers Squibb in 2003. The $23-million first phase will create laboratory, warehouse, packaging, and administrative space. Slated for occupancy in early 2005, the plant will employ 400 workers when it reaches full operational status, nearly doubling Andrx’s manufacturing capacity. Andrx makes and distributes generic drugs, as well as specializing in the development of alternative delivery methods for existing branded drugs.
