Reno, Nev. (Vocus/PRWEB ) May 12, 2009 — Scienceuticals, Inc., a leading beauty products manufacturer of cosmetics and skin care products, announced today that it is creating 25 jobs by the end of the year with the opening of its west coast development and manufacturing facility in Reno, Nevada. Some of the jobs being created include bench chemists, lab technicians, account managers, as well as administrative, shipping/receiving, and production personnel.
The 55,000 square-foot facility has the capabilities to produce skin care products, such as lotions, oils, hair care products, as well as cosmetics and over-the-counter pharmaceuticals. Scienceuticals expects to create 25 jobs in the Reno location by the end of the year, with the beauty products manufacturing plant operating at full capacity with over 100 employees in three years.
“Having a global beauty products and cosmetics manufacturer like Scienceuticals choose Reno to open its west coast facility is a real boon for our economy. Not only is the company occupying 55,000 square feet, but it will employ 25 people in much sought after manufacturing jobs which couldn’t come at a better time,” said Chuck Alvey, president/CEO for the Economic Development Authority of Western Nevada. “The company selected Reno over other cities like Boise, Portland, Phoenix and Albuquerque which speaks to Greater Reno-Tahoe’s competitive business climate and the company’s growth plans. Scienceuticals also falls right in line with the Target2010 plan for our region’s future growth in the advanced manufacturing sector.”
Scienceuticals chose Reno for its expansion because of the strategic transportation links to major western markets, entrepreneurial business climate, and skilled workforce. “The combination of the business and lifestyle amenities that Reno has to offer fits our company perfectly,” said Donald Hayden, CEO & Founder of Scienceuticals.
With the opening of new facility in Reno, Scienceuticals doubles its research, development, testing, and beauty products manufacturing capabilities. Customers will benefit from decreases in shipping costs and transit times.
