50 new jobs are to be created in Cork by US tech firm Zazzle.
The custom design platform has announced an expansion of its European headquarters on Leeside at its base at the former Guinness building on Union Qua.
Zazzle established its Cork base in 2013 and now employs 225 people on Leeside, with that number increase to 275 over the next three years.
Tánaiste and Minister for Enterprise Trade & Employment Leo Varadkar said: “I’m really pleased to see Zazzle’s plans to expand its European HQ in Cork, creating 50 new jobs over the next three years.
"These are great jobs for skilled engineers, offering really good opportunities for those working in and around Cork.
"Ireland offers the right conditions for tech firms seeking to grow in the European market and this announcement is yet another example of our success in attracting high quality investment and jobs. I wish the team every success with this expansion.”
“Zazzle has benefitted from, and is thrilled to continue, our commitment to the Republic of Ireland," says Robert Beaver, Zazzle CEO.
"We value our relationships with the Cork community and are eager to bring on more Ireland-based talent. Our Cork-based Zazzlers are an integral part of our global team.”
