Roche Site Up For Sale

Swiss headquartered pharma giant, Roche is looking to sell its former manufacturing site in Co. Clare where it has spent more than €150m in “one of the largest remediation projects of its type in Europe”.   This follows Roche Ireland appointing Cushman & Wakefield to bring to market the 36-hectare (88-acre) site, in Clarecastle, Co. Clare.   The appointment follows a formal engagement to manage the sale of the site, which is zoned for mixed use, with a clear objective of identifying a best-in-class investor capable of delivering sustainable employment and long-term economic benefit to the region.   To discuss this further, Alan Morrissey spoke with Paul Murphy, Mayor of Clare and Clarecastle Fine Gael Councillor.
