The second largest private investment in Kansas history \u2013 and the largest economic development project for Merck Animal Health \u2013 will create more than 200 new jobs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The $860 million investment in its existing manufacturing facility and $35 million in its research and development laboratories demonstrates Merck\u2019s commitment to the U.S. market, where the company has significantly invested to deliver innovative health solutions that advance the prevention and treatment of diseases in people and animals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cThis extraordinary investment by Merck Animal Health underscores my administration\u2019s commitment to securing a strong economic future for our state and ensuring prosperity for generations to come,\u201d <strong>La Gobernadora Laura Kelly declar\u00f3<\/strong>. \u201cPublic-private partnerships that lead to major global projects, such as those with Merck, Fiserv and Panasonic \u2013 just to name a few recent successes \u2013 are occurring because people believe in Kansas. They believe in who we are, what we are doing, and the direction we have taken.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The 200,000-square-foot manufacturing facility project will expand filling and freeze dryer capacity for large molecule vaccines and biologic products for Merck Animal Health. As a Center of Excellence, it will play a pivotal role in the manufacturing of animal health products and will complement the company\u2019s extensive U.S. and international network of animal health product manufacturing plants.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Site preparation and facility design will start immediately, creating 2,500 construction jobs. Commercial manufacturing is expected to begin in 2030.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cOur De Soto manufacturing facility is strategically located in the heart of the Animal Health Corridor. This region is renowned for its concentration of animal health companies, fostering an unparalleled ecosystem for innovation, collaboration and industry leadership,\u201d <strong>Merck Animal Health President Richard DeLuca said<\/strong>. \u201cThis investment in our site is designed to increase Merck Animal Health\u2019s ability to meet the growing customer demand for its portfolio of animal biologics products and ensure the company remains at the forefront of innovation in the animal health sector. This initiative also reflects our dedication to advancing animal health and our on-going investment in the communities where we operate.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Since the advent of the 2017 Tax Cuts and Jobs Act, Merck has allocated more than $12 billion to enhance domestic manufacturing and research capabilities, with additional planned investments of more than $9 billion over the next four years.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Merck Animal Health\u2019s significant investment in its research and development laboratories will enhance its research capabilities, focusing on advancing global drug discovery and development initiatives. The investment will continue to drive Merck Animal Health\u2019s innovative research and development of novel parasiticides and therapeutics, reinforcing the company\u2019s dedication to improving animal health and welfare worldwide. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cMerck\u2019s massive expansion in De Soto further elevates Kansas\u2019 long-established status as a global leader in animal health,\u201d <strong>El Vicegobernador y Secretario de Comercio, David Toland, declar\u00f3<\/strong>. \u201cThe opportunities and ripple effects of having almost $1 billion surge into the local economy will have far-reaching and long-lasting reverberations across the entire state.
