EIGHTY new jobs are to be created over the next two years thanks to the expansion Decora Blind Systems.
The Lisburn-based family-owned blind manufacturing business is benefiting from an Invest Northern Ireland employment grant of £240,000 towards the new jobs.
Enterprise, Trade and Investment Minister Jonathan Bell said: “Decora is ranked as one of the largest window blind producers in the UK and its clients include some of the largest independent blind companies in the country.
“The company has focused on manufacturing and wholesaling speciality products, introducing contemporary ranges with high value design properties. The 80 new jobs will generate £1.4m.”
Managing director Stuart Dickson said: “Decora’s business growth over the past five years has been consistent. Our continued goal is to ensure employee, customer and supplier relationships are harnessed to their full potential.”
Forty-three of the roles are already in place.
