Johnson & Johnson's Vaccine Manufacturing Partner Invests $150 Million in MA Facility
BOXBOROUGH, MA—German contract manufacturer Vibalogics GmbH is investing $150 million and hiring 100 people for a facility here as it helps Big Pharma develop a COVID-19 vaccine. The company plans to open the site by the second half of 2021. It is starting with 100 employees and hopes to reach 250 employees in the next four years.
The 118,000-square-foot facility was previously the East Coast R&D headquarters for Cisco Systems, which invested $28 million to upgrade the property's infrastructure, according to building owner Lincoln Property Co. Vibalogics selected Boxborough after an East Coast search led by Colliers International's Curtis Cole.
