Finland’s Paulig Group is to add production lines at its snack-making Poco Loco plant in Roeselare in Belgium.

The facility focuses on the production of Tex-Mex food including tortilla wraps, chips, dinner kits, Tex-Mex spices and salsas.

The EUR12m investment will see two lines added to increase capacity. The move will see 75 jobs added.

“When a chain of retailers decides it wants to add our products to its range, we need to be ready. Maximum flexibility and minimum complexity: that’s our motto,” said Peter Denolf, managing director for Poco Loco. “It’s essential for our customers. The extra capacity will ensure we can continue to offer them that flexibility.”

The Roeselare site is to take on tex mex production moved from another Paulig plant in Belgium.

The move will be complete by early 2016 at the latest and will require a further investment of EUR5m.
