Governor Josh Shapiro and Pennsylvania Department of Community & Economic Development (DCED) Secretary Rick Siger visited Eurofins Lancaster Laboratories to announce that the Commonwealth has secured a $147.5 million private-sector investment to expand the company’s biopharmaceutical product testing operations in Lancaster County. Supported by more than $2.1 million in state investment, the project will create 250 new jobs over the next three years and retain 3,080 existing positions, further strengthening Pennsylvania’s growing pharmaceutical and life sciences sectors.
Eurofins Lancaster Laboratories will build a 300,000-square-foot laboratory and office expansion at its 49-acre campus located at 2425 New Holland Pike in Upper Leacock Township. When completed, this location will be the largest site within the Eurofins Scientific network of more than 950 global laboratories and one of the largest biopharmaceutical testing laboratories in the world.
“Pennsylvania is a leader in life science innovation, and major investments like this from Eurofins are supporting the continued growth of this critically important industry,” said Governor Shapiro. “We have the strategic location, robust research infrastructure, and skilled workforce that help biotech companies deliver timely therapies to patients and make the world healthier and safer. My Administration will continue to make strategic investments that further strengthen this important industry, create jobs, and drive even more economic growth across our Commonwealth.”
