Genentech will more than double its investment in a North Carolina manufacturing facility, bringing the total commitment to about $2 billion.

The biotechnology company, a Roche subsidiary, said Tuesday that the expansion of the project in Holly Springs, N.C. would increase the facility's production capacity and output. It will also create an additional 100 jobs, the company said.

"The company decided to increase its investment in Holly Springs, a growing hub for biopharmaceutical innovation, because of its highly skilled local workforce, strong academic institutions, and proximity to other leading life science companies in the Raleigh-Durham area," Genentech said Tuesday.

The facility is expected to be operational by 2029 and will produce treatments for metabolic conditions, including obesity. The total project will support more than 500 manufacturing jobs and 1,500 construct jobs, the company said.

The expansion of the Holly Springs facility is part of Roche's pledge to invest $50 billion in U.S. manufacturing and research and development.

"This expansion reflects our long-term commitment to the United States and communities like Holly Springs that offer the kind of world-class biotech talent, top research institutions, and strong infrastructure that make innovation possible," Genentech Chief Executive Officer Ashley Magargee said.
