BATHGATE, SCOTLAND -- Plexus officially opened a previously announced design center and manufacturing facility here.

The £9 million investment was funded in part by Scottish Enterprise and could lead to 130 new jobs, officials said.

“After announcing our expansion plans at the end of last year, we received very positive feedback from our local customer base, confirming that our decision met the demand for UK based design and manufacturing solutions,” commented Steve Frisch, Plexus regional president in EMEA, in a published statement.

The company announced the expansion last December. Plexus also operates a PCB manufacturing site in Kelso, Scotland.

Scotland's technology and engineering sector employs some 150,000 workers, according to government officials.
